Best text-based email client?


Anyone's got any opinions on which is the best text-based email client for Linux?

Mutt? Pine? Other?

/Mats.

Update:
I'm looking to set up Mutt/Pine/Other on my local machine and fetchmail from my yahoo account and sendmail via my isp's smtp. Any tips for basic setup of these apps would be much appreciated - I'm realising that sendmail is a jungle!

Thanks,
M.

I used pine for years at college and I liked it. I think it contains the pico editor too which is supposed to be quite powerful (haven't used it specifically myself)
