I love pine and lynx. There are other pretty neat browsers out there you can try like links (spelled with an i instead of a y" and also w3m which is also a text based web browser that I think is great. elinks is another text browser. Of course there is mutt for mail, but in the end I have to admit my favorite combo for me is the classic pine and lynx as you mentioned.
