Well; as I wrote, I use Evolution, and I have tried Thunderbird. I don't
really wanna switch again, as it'll mean re-downloading ~3000 emails,
which - when you've gotta mark them all read except the unread ones,
gets a bit tiresome.

See above.

I don't mind the CLI, but nor do I get much spam; about 1 email per
month, and that was sorta my fault. The others are blocked by GMail
anyway. Don't you go signing me up for any either!
