I use mutt in combination with procmail and xbuffy.
If I need to remind myself of a mail, I flag that message as new and
save it in a special folder -- done with a macro. Rest is taken care by
xbuffy. Further, xbuffy is "omnipresent" in my window manager and a
middle click launches mutt.
Here are sample mutt macros:
# line breaks for clarity
macro index ">" ":set noresolve\r:set noconfirmcreate\rwN
:set resolve\rs>\r:set confirmcreate\r"
macro pager ">" ":set noresolve\r:set noconfirmcreate\rN
:set resolve\rs>\r:set confirmcreate\r"
Here, the mail is saved in $mbox. You can choose yours.
resolve is turned off to prevent advancement of cursor when we turn the
'new' flag on. It is turned back on later. I also use
nosave_empty. Hence the confirmcreate stuff.
