Then learn! There are plenty of tutorials on the web. If you plan on
doing this whole e-mail thing for the rest of your life, you may as
well learn one powerful and customizable tool for doing it.

mutt has POP and IMAP capabilities, but you may just want to use
fetchmail and procmail to retrieve and sort your messages. Also, OIT
violates your privacy by selectively scanning and reading your
e-mails, so you may want to consider not using OIT's e-mail services.
