They're high-feature command line readers with high-feature GUI

So mutt has two problems, then. Neither bsd mail nor mh has difficulty
with much bigger inboxes.
I used mutt with a large (>1500 message) mailbox file once and the performance
was way worse than with large maildirs.

Ok, finally, using the rpm I was able to get QMail working on my system. The
Qmail that it created is certainly different that the one I compiled
directly, more on that later.
I rempoved my old Pine and installed the new one that recognizes Maildirs.
It works, I'm very pleased about that.

Set $MAIL to point to your maildir.
But... is it my imagination or does mutt read the whole maildir, and
then write it back? That's just awf
