I now use sylpheed to send/receive gmail.

Or mailz/pmail?

No, they do not work with gmail. Tt requires
SMTP authenication (which does not work in pmail).

Can you read subject lines and From: and delete things
without downloading them? Download messages without
attachments?

With sylpheed? I think not.

Cheers,

I am told IMAP lets you do all that, but gmail only offers POP. Fastmail has IMAP but a the free accounts have a poor spam filter. Pine has IMAP and POP capabilities.
