There are some advantages to using fdm Oko, it was written by the same guy who wrote tmux.. it has advanced filtering capabilities and a syntax that could be loosely compared to OpenBSD's pf.

According to documentation, mutt's imap/pop3 capabilities lack the ability to retrieve and store copies of the mail locally.

Also, the stigma attached to pop3 is quite annoying.. the protocol has a fairly decent design and imap isn't the best solution for everyone.
