I like mutt since it lets me pipe stuff to arbitrary commands,
"T" works in the pager for toggling quoted text.

It's possible to use both with IMAP (offlineimap + local dovecot works
well on slow connections).

I rely on at+atd to email myself and also maintain a text file over IMAP.

The "T" (toggle-quoted) command in mutt hides quoted entirely, which
makes it a bit confusing, at times; but toggling again unhides it.
