Currently I use fetchmail -> procmail to get my e-mail and spam filter it,
and view it and then KMail to view it. KMail starts up relatively fast and
isn't too heavy (I'd say Evolution : KMail :: Outlook : Outlook Express).
I'm sure you could set it up to do filtering and stuff on its own, as well.
The only problem is it'll be harder to make it blend in with Gnome if that's
what you're using.

I've also used Mozilla Thunderbird. It's coming along nicely. It looks
pretty and has built-in junk-mail training (not so much a problem for your
ruby-talk account, but more for other mail, if you use it for that). It's a
little slower to start up, but I always keep it open anyways. It'll probably
blend in with Gnome better as well.

They're both good products, as is Sylpheed (although Sylpheed is a little
plain looking :)).
