I actually use mutt. but sometimes when someone sends me an html email with a lot of
graphics attached it's convenient to use a client that can display it all, directly.
I've been using balsa, but it isn't being packaged for RHEL/Centos anymore, as far
as I can figure.
I just built a new machine and installed 5.3, so I could use the same Balsa RPM I
used on the previous machine (also centos 5.3), which was provided to me back when
5.0 came out by another kind reader of this list--whose name I no longer remember,
but I figured I'd see if some other mail reader that is supported on the platform
would work instead.
