OTOH, I have nowhere near the knowledge or experience that even a BS of CS would have. Anyway, on the servers ny MUA is mutt via CLI. I'm not a power user there, I'm sure (and it's hard to be on a dialup connection in the sticks, as we say in Missouri), but I'd use it over the other plaintext CLI MUA's I've seen or tried. Very, very recently (read, this month) I decided I had enough working hardware to run FBSD on the desktop. My tenative efforts have brought a good bit of satisfaction. Right now, I'm thinking that Mozilla's mail client looks pretty good. Unlike another poster, I never fought with Netscrape while on Windoze...I think that the current model seems real nice --- I'm using the ported version 1.4 Mozilla's "junk filter" seems to be learning quite well. Another couple of days and I'll set it to autodelete the stuff ... it just started learning on Friday, so it's even 'noobier' than I. BTW, if the layout of this mail "inhales swiftly", you'll be sure and tell me, right? I'll cc: myself on a mutt account and check it for myself. My brother tells me it looks fine to him.
