And last but not least: I got used to some way of interaction with computer, and that way is most productive for me after very long use. I don't want to blend in iPad generation, I want to stay productive which I am. So, I use Mutt (on FreeBSD, which my workstation runs, it is so easy and straightforward to install and maintain Mutt).
Guys, I corrected myself: I meant Mate desktop above (related to somebody’s list of reasons why he needs Desktop environment - DE - he needs). However, someone’s creative editing threw away context, namely that what I said was related to DE descussion.
Thanks for hints about mutt which I use. Hints may be helpfult to those who use gmail, not me who doesn’t use google anything. I skip mentioning why, as you, vast majority do use google, and don’t care about the reasons why I don’t.

Another (these days neo) mutt lover. I'll take this time to spam my own http://srobb.net/mutt.html page.
Mutt does work with gmail. Hrrm, I'm looking I see I do have the password used in my msmtprc file. If one just uses a very simple muttrc file file, it will also work but require the password.
set smtp_url="smtp://scott@gmail.com@smtp.gmail.com:587" set smtp_pass="scottisawesome" set ssl_starttls=yes
I feel that everyone should use scottisawesome as their password though some foolish people disagree. But (I am not 100% sure) it seems that those 3 lines were all I needed back when I did it that way (Nowadays I have a slightly more complex setup as I have too many email accounts like everyone else in the world).
