MUA, or Mail User Agent, is what reads your email from the spool or
mail server and divides the spool up into something a little bit more
managable than a bigass flat text file. If you can see this, you're
either reading this in an MUA or you've just done less /var/mail/<username>
You may be certifiably insane if you use less and sendmail manually to
read and send mail...

apt-get install squirrelmail then cancel your Lycos account. 8:o)

If you switch to the above solution, you can use procmail to sort your
mail and bask in the joy of not having Lycos add spam to the end of
your mails.
Also, you might consider using the quoting convention I'm
demonstrating here, top posting is widely considered harmful since it
makes it difficult to read chronologically and more difficult to
properly quote.
