I use fetchmail + evolution, and it works very nicely.

First, set up fetchmail to drop your incoming mail into mboxes somewhere
convenient.  Next, create mbox-based accounts in Evolution that use
"local delivery" to receive messages, using those mboxes instead of the
default /var/spool/mail/yourname.

Downloading mail becomes a two-step process.  First run fetchmail from a
shell, and then hit "Send / Receive" to pull the downloaded messages
into Evolution.
