A couple of newgroups which I find informative for that area:

comp.mail.misc
comp.sys.mac.comm

In terms of actual programs: if popservice is an option, Eudora and 
TechMail are good programs.  Eudora is avaible via anonymous FTP from 
ux1.cso.uiuc.edu:mac/eudora/ in Apple DiskCopy format.  For more info: 
s-dorner@uiuc.edu.  TechMail is from MIT, but I don't remember the FTP 
address.
