Oliver,
  I do think that either exim or postfix are good solutions ro use on a
laptop. I used sendmail, then exim now postfix. The last is easy to
configure and does not consume much resources. I have a really small
laptop (Contura Aero 8MB RAM) with smail on it. 
  If you do not want a server then go and look for Archimedes on
sourceforge it a GTK based application with support for POP3, external
SMTP (with queueing in offline mode), support for more account,
filetering and all sort of thinks. I like its look and feel. This is not
mutt or Pine or elm, it an X based app. But you don't have any server.

Regards
Stefano
