There are plenty of great email clients out there. But I like mutt because: 1. It is infinitely configurable. 2. I don't have to use a mouse. I can keep my hands on the keyboard the entire time. 3. It is easy to use via ssh, which I do all the time. And while you can use a GUI based email client remotely, the further away you get from the server, the slower things become. Not really a problem using ssh/mutt. 4. It handles news groups just fine with threads. There are pluses and minuses for all the email clients out there, whether GUI or CLI. It really comes down to what you are comfortable with.
