For sending mail I use sendmail on Linux and postfix on NetBSD.

For retrieval I use fetchmail. I'm not particularly attached to it, but can get it to do what I need. What I find most frustrating about it is the documentation, especially concerning ssl, tls and so on.

I store mail in an mbox, which probably makes me hopelessly stuck in the past. I often find it difficult to change, and also try to avoid getting too much email which perhaps makes it workable.
