Well, if you like /bin/mail, but feel it's too limited, then may I
suggest (yet again) mush.  Note that mush is backwards compatible
with mail and Mail type systems.  You can configure it (or your
environment) to make it as simple and ugly as Mail, or you can have
it be as sickeningly user friendly that you will just scream.  It has
a curses interface that is similarly configurable and it has a suntools
mode which isn't mac-like, but it is a window/icon-based application
that runs on suns..

it's also free.  If you are running unix, it'll run.
