You don't have to worry about your mail server. You should use
fetchmail, a program to retrive mail from mail servers that allows
pop3, imap, etc. Once you have downloaded all the mail to your own
mailbox, you can use any mail user agent (MUA) program to read it.
Read fetchmail and procmail manpages.
Bye.
PD: Netscape is slow. Mutt could be confusing when starting with it;
then it's really better, faster and more intuitive. :)
