    You can't beat Pine for remote access.

    Try mutt. It's truly free (unlike pine) and it comes loaded to the gills with features. Features which are actually usable, unlike Outhouse.

    Fetchmail to retrieve the mail, procmail to filter it and mutt to read it: a beautiful combination. There's no real reason to use GUI mail--I do enough remote access that it's easier to learn the CLI client once and for all time.
