Netscape and Mozilla
Pegasus (http://www.pmail.com)
The Bat (http://www.ritlabs.com/the_bat/)
Becky (http://www.rimarts.co.jp/becky.htm)
Agent (primarily a newsreader, but a competent POP mail client, too,
http://www.forteinc.com/agent/)
and about a hundred freeware, shareware, and payware others. For people
who want to handle their mail without screwing around with a GUI any more
than minimally necessary, they're also PC Pine
(http://www.washington.edu/pine/).
Of the GUI ones I've tested lately, I like Pegasus, largely because it's
one of the few other than Pine (and, remarkably, OE) that handles with
multiple IMAP mailboxes. I haven't beaten very hard on Mozilla mail, but
in quick tests it looks rather good, too.
