I'm desperately looking for a replacement email-client for Eudora.
Pine was always my favourite but I believe it is unmaintained now.
I've been very happy with Mozilla Thunderbird for the last decade....

text on black background)
Similar results (decade or more) using SeaMonkey, which is basically the
Mozilla email and web clients combined into one handy package. I have
been using it on OSX/macOS "forever".
SeaMonkey filters and shuffles email into relevant folders, and then flags such
folders
with the number of UNREAD emails in bold text, so they are easy to notice.
Attachments remain encoded in the original email (standard unix-style rfc
format) until
you manually detach them and file them away according to your own system and
needs.
Since the mailboxes are stored in the standard "plain text" rfc format, I have
been able to
move my personal email stores for several accounts and thousands of emails from
one
machine to another with nary a glitch. And as such, the email boxes are very
amenable
to shell-based "bashing" as it were, if you are so inclined.
HTH.
