Hmmm, I think I wasn't so clear in my original posting. I'm looking
for something a lot more Mac like. Elm is too complicated, and
/bin/mail is too limited. I've seen this custom thing on MVS that's
almost what I'm looking for, except it runs on MVS. There's a list of
what the function keys do on every screen, and those function keys are
they only commands that do anything. This gives a feeling that you can
understand all the program does by fiddling with it for 5 minutes, and
that there's not some set of mysterious features that make you feel
you're not in command of the program and don't really understand it.

I'm not sure what I'm looking for exists, especially on UNIX, but I
thought I'd ask anyway. Thanks for your responses. Oh yes, I'm happy
to pay for it too if any one knows of any commercial products
