Funny, I've never used one of the Earthlink clients, and I've got one of those Eartlink swallow-ups for an ISP. I haven't tried Mutt yet, as Mozilla is doing a pretty good job (idiot printer still doesn't like Linux enough to work). Pine recently came out for Cygwin, so if noone likes mutt, you have that option. I haven't had one virus yet since October, using a mix of Opera Mail, Mahogany, Sylpheed, and now Mozilla, and AFAIK, Norton hasn't blocked any mail. (and this is with Cement XP "Pro"). I guess I'm lucky.
