Hello,
I'm setting up the email system on my server. I got rid of sendmail and installed postfix, and I will be installing dovecot. I researched the difference between mbox and maildir formats, and I'm going to go with the Maildir. I'm running everything on ZFS, so many small files shouldn't be a problem.
My problem is, before I made any of these changes and was using the default sendmail setup, I was using /usr/bin/mail to read my periodic and cron outputs. However, after I installed postfix with the Maildir delivery option, I quickly realized that /usr/bin/mail doesn't support Maildir.
Can anyone suggest a MUA which has support for Maildir that I can use? I'm looking for something simple and command line, similar to /usr/bin/mail that I can use until I get around to installing Dovecot. The only one I know of off the top of my head is mutt. I've never had much use, and thus experience, with unix MUAs.
Thank you.
