What to use to download mails to my account ?


Hello all,

I spent a little time searching google for this with no success, I'm pretty sure its a simple thing but I rather ask...

I have Ubuntu server edition, postfix installed and running ( well he relay all outgoing mail to my another mail server ( provided by my web hosting company ) ) so it send all mails that come to user@localhost accounts ...

What I need now is some email client that would actually connect to that external mail server and download the messages to the ubuntu server for me to view... I need something like Mozilla Thunderbird but for command line...

Any ideas ?
Many thanks for any answer...
