I've always liked using KMail in Fluxbox (assuming you may have KDE installed 
on your machine {?}).  As for browsers, I'm using Phoenix 0.5 (what happened 
to 0.6?!...anyone?) and I really like it as a less-bloated alternative to the 
main Mozilla browser.  Failing that, other email apps:  Sylpheed, Aethera.
