Best vote I know of is Netscape. It isnt great, but its the best thing
out there ( IMO ) for X based mail.

Well, you could bind pine keyboadings to have netscape like keybindings,
thus giving netscape pine-like keybindings. :)

I use Mutt, never tried the others ;-p Except for the aforementioned
Netscape I used to use before I saw the light of Mutt.
