Enough of that GUI nonsense, in 3 days Thunderbird couldn't index my
gmail inbox, or download all the headers, or whatever it was doing. Don't
need Firefox or Thunderbird loaded to get to your email either. And high
CPU usage to accomplish nothing, just your favorite terminal emulator.
This is fast, like the Android client. And now maybe
quoting will work right in mailing lists. And because it's IMAP you can
have several clients going at once. I started on Pine but it's hard to
tell the difference.

The URLs I used were just imap.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com, didn't need
usernames or ports. Signature goes in ~/.signature
