I use mutt 99% of the time.  I ssh into my home box from anywhere and
run mutt.  The other 1% of the time I use webmail (squirrelmail or
gmail).  I do POP my gmail so most of the time I read it in mutt.  I get
thousands of messages per day and GUI and web clients tend to choke on
the amount of mail I get (and keep - I rarely delete anything).  Mutt's
able to handle my giant mail archive and that's the primary reason I use
it.
