Email client that understands both HTML and maildir

emailmail-user-agentmaildirsoftware-rec

I'm using Mutt as my main email client, but I'm looking for another one for my work email (because of HTML email). I need one that can handle my existing Maildir email, to be able to switch between Mutt and the new one without having to import/export my old emails.

Does anyone know such email client?.

Also I don't want to stop using Fetchmail, Procmail and Exim4. It would be nice to find something similar to Mutt, but with better HTML answering abilities.

Best Answer

Local email for multiple email cleints [IMAP]

Have you considered using "maildir ready" IMAP server?
It will allow you to access your maildir by many/most email clients.
You may consider "maildir ready" Dovecot IMAP server as "an option zero".

AFAIK two email clients (Evolution and Emacs/Gnus) can use Dovecot in server-less mode to access your personal maildir.
