This really belongs on -questions...
A lot of people (such as me) prefer to use fetchmail to get our mail
from POP3 servers (or other types of servers that fetchmail supports).
To read mail, I personally use mutt. It's highly configurable, and deals
nicely with mailing lists and such. Both fetchmail and mutt are in
ports.
