Mutt
After all the talk recently about green text on a black background, not to mention keeping hands on the keyboard and off the damn mouse, I decided for the hell of it to get mutt set up on the old laptop and have some good Terminal fun.
I’ll write this more in depth at a later time, but suffice to say it is working fine after relatively little effort.
Between mutt and lynx, I may never leave the Terminal again. ;)

Once you have mutt installed (assuming you did it via fink) you can find a sample muttrc file here:
