I'm slightly hesitant to suggest it, since it's not really
"Free Software" but Pine might be what you're looking for.
Pine is fairly user-friendly, and you can find a LGPL program patch
called xP which provides a GUI for Pine. It's in development, so
it may not be the most stable proggy, but it's a start.
