IMAP is a mail protocol that allows a mail client to read email without
downloading all the letters, by viewing the headers list, and only
downloading a letter as per a user's request. it also allows you to store
your folders on the IMAP server, thusw having access to your mail and
folders from anywhere.

some behaviour that can be configured...

there is at least one command-line utility that can decode MIME
attachments, and it is called 'mmencode'. it works in a way similar to
'uuencode'. not sure how it would have multi-part atachments, though.
