I've found that VM, mew and wonderlust are all quite good. I mainly use
VM as that was the first emacs mail client I used. It has gone through a
perod of less than desirable active maintenance, but now it is bieing
actively maintained and developed again.
This is the main reason why I quitted. I am happy to see this has changed.
mh-e is quite good as well is you want to use mh style mailboxes. VM
uses its own mbox style mail folders. mew can handle maildir and mbox
and I can't remember what wonderlust uses.
I have tested MH-E which is great but mh is hard to use. MH-E
does not integrate fully with mh IMO (There are many things that
mh supports and that you can't really use easily when in MH-E).
