I run it as a daemon.

Don't know.

It can deliver it to local users as standard email (using your local
MTA, in my case exim).

I use procmail to save my mail to ~/Mail/spool using one file per
mailing list. There are many other ways to do it with procmail. Pick
your poison.

Anything that works to read your UNIX mail spool should work (unless
you set up exim and/or procmail to put your mail elsewhere), which
means probably every MUA shipped with Debian.

/usr/docs/fetchmail/
/usr/docs/procmail/
