Since this has moved to Mutt vs. Pine, I figured I would pipe up now. I was looking for a new mailer the other day, but I really like pine. The problem is that I also really like GUI's and eye-candy. The latter is what I used to hear from people all the time. They hated using Netscape for mail, but they didn't want to give up the convenience of the GUI. So, in my search for a mailer that has the usability of a nice GUI, but the stability of Pine, I found "xPine" at http://xpine.sourceforge.net/ . It's a GUI front-end to Pine. It looks really slick, and it doesn't limit the functionality of Pine at all.
