Thanks, I'll have a look at it.

At first glance it still seems to have more bells and whistles than
she would be comfortable with.  It seems that all those buttons and
underlined things are simply confusing for her, and the fewer options
that are presented the better.

If she would be happy with text only, I would say pine (now re-re-labeled as "alpine"). I suspect that the people with whom she most wants to exchange mail are not limited to text, so that's likely to be a solution.

You might look at the mail component of seamonkey. Mail isn't really simple these days, and hopefully she isn't going to have problems with UCE.

alpine and seamonkey have packages.
