Incoming from Branko Vukelic:
mutt, mutt-ng, etpan, elmo, are nice emailreaders included in grml.
I'd recomend mutt-ng. It's quite easy to setup with the grml-muttng script. You might want to tweak the config but it really is ok. (use pops://pop.gmail.com as mailserver, mind the pop_s_). And G is the key for getting the mail ;).
Please notice that development of mutt-ng does not take place since a few months. I don't recommend to chose mutt-ng if you don't have it running already (I'm even considering switching back to mutt). So please chose mutt with grml-mutt instead.
What I want to do is:
- set up POP access (using SSL) to my Gmail.com account,
For the receiving, it's been taken care of by mutt itself.
JFYI: fetchmail and getmail are both capable of handling ssl.
[...]
- send mail using Gmail.com's SMTP server,
For the sending, use the grml-postfix setup script (don't execute it more then once, it messes up the config file it seems).
Please notice that grml-postfix nowadays does nothing else than running:
dpkg-reconfigure postfix
