Yes, mutt is great! 

Btw, you can use mutt with dovecot without running dovecot as a daemon/server,
by putting this in your .muttrc:

set tunnel="MAIL=/home/geert/mbox /usr/pkg/libexec/dovecot/imap"

(adapt paths for your own system)

This way mutt will talk to the dovecot imap binary via stdin/stdout.  This
will also work over ssh.  This way you don't need to run dovecot as a server
and you still benefit from eg. the cache etc.
