Hello,

I'm setting up the email system on my server. I got rid of sendmail
and installed postfix, and I will be installing dovecot. I researched
the difference between mbox and maildir formats, and I'm going to go
with the Maildir. I'm running everything on ZFS, so many small files
shouldn't be a problem.

My problem is, before I made any of these changes and was using the
default sendmail setup, I was using /usr/bin/mail to read my periodic
and cron outputs. However, after I installed postfix with the Maildir
delivery option, I quickly realized that /usr/bin/mail doesn't support
Maildir.

Can anyone suggest a MUA which has support for Maildir that I can use?
I'm looking for something simple and command line, similar to
/usr/bin/mail that I can use until I get around to installing Dovecot.
The only one I know of off the top of my head is mutt. I've never had
much use, and thus experience, with unix MUAs.

Thank you.

Alpine and Mutt, try mutt first and if you do not like it try alpine.
There are others (gnus, elm and cone). Elm being more or less the ancester of both pine and mutt.
I never tested any of these three though.
