What about som textbased client like mutt or alpine?
Another possibility along these lines would be nmh. The thing I like
about nmh is it doesn't store messages in mbox format files. Each
message lives in its own file. This might seem trivial to many until
clamav quarrantines your entire mbox file because it found a virus in a
single message. I had that happen to me once and lost over 600 other
messages that way. It's necessary to use the inc command inside nmh to
pull messages off the mail spool file into nmh and once this is done, the
mail spool file is expendible. Clamav runs on a machine set up this way
it only quarrantines the specific messages with the viruses in them and
leaves the rest tested and unmolested so you can read them later. Of
course nmh is made up of several commands so it takes a little more to
learn to use it but with use you're not stuck in one mail client program.
