    fetchmail is also IMAP capable and offers a lot of different options
    with that, like antispam response etc.

    I don't know how feature rich mutt is in terms of IMAP capabilities.
    Since it was designed as a MUA, I guess not every feature of IMAP is
    supported by mutt.

    Anyhow, mutt's IMAP features might suffice to most users.

    cheers,
