How about delivery of mail? If you're using pop then probably most reads will do. If your using imap, that's another story.
Prolly a combination of IMAP and fetchmail(POP/IMAP).
How about interface, graphical, text based?
mutt. :) See, I'm from the old skewl, where mail client != MTA. You know, the whole unix modular thing, where you should be able to take your favorite one and combine it with your favorite other and have it work.
I think that most mail readers will do what you explained as far as queueing mail. I can't think of a read i've used that has not been able to do this.
Well mutt is my example. It has no MTA capability, and right now I'm just using smtpclient to jam my mail to my provider's (work or cablemodem) SMTP server. That's on my desktop PCs at home and work. But for mobile use, I want something more badass. Chuck A. and Brad have indicated that sendmail can do all I want (if I can figure out how to make it do it all, which could be a fun project in itself!!) I know there are other options, though. qmail, exim, and probably others. Anyone know about these things, pros & cons & whatnot? -Chuck
