 Since 1995 and up until very recently, I had been using Pine as my only
mail client. IMO it has the best UI that I have ever used with a mail
client. I am currently using Evolution, which is nice and all but that
is only temporary. I upgraded my mail server to now use Maildir type
mailboxes, switched from @#$@#$ Sendmail to Postfix and installed
Courier-imap (over ssl only). I figured that now that I had imap, I
might try out some GUI mail clients. Well, it turns out that none of
them are as elegant as Pine (for my usage anyway). So, right after I get
my procmail recipes up and running I will be going back to Pine.

Cheers,

Chris
