I use PINE (ALPINE) because it works efficiently. I don't like all the bandwidth wasted on decorations that the newer browsers encourage or HTML tags consume. Single key actions are faster than hand and wrist numbing mouse actions. I can connect to IMAP etc servers when needed, but don't like my mail stored elsewhere depending on a provider and network that sometimes breaks when I need it. I can view attachments or links quickly when needed. Thread sorting is an option. PINE has stayed current in network functionality thanks to its maintainers. Not sure why 'modern' mail clients are needed.
