On this list, even.

"*still*", huh? Venerable it may be, but that just means it has a few
tricks up its sleeves. (Given that level of awareness, I thought you
might be using it, but no, I see.)

Its configurability is very nice; when I wanted it to detect emails from
my brother, sent from work, and twiddle the reply address to his home
address instead (where he reads mail more often), it was not too hard to
make it look after that for me. (The GUI offerings may be able to do
that too, but I'd be hard pressed to imagine the hieroglyphics needed.)

But yes, if you stick with keeping emails in large topic-related files
(mbox format), rather than maildir (one email per file), then noatime or
even relatime can be a nuisance, if not dealt with.
