These 2 have my vote as well....
I do not know, anyone using a text only mail reader anymore!
The one thing I would change here is removal of the
restriction on attachments.
Well, two things.. Getting rid of the cctalk/cctech split as well.

I would agree with both of those too.

I wonder what you don't like about
"groups.io" Its pretty much a pure mailing
list?
Like all of the webby time-wasters, they don't have easy to mirror zipped
archives, because they want to to spend time hovering around clicking on their
sites.

I read this list on PINE, on a shell account at my ISP.
In this group, I doubt that I am the only one.
Can we restrict to TEXT emails?

Indeed. I get quite a lot of emails and mutt allows me to properly
fight back.

Reminds me of a cartoon in a HiFi mag several years ago. Enthusiast
talking to friend in front of dual 'scopes, "Why listen to it when I can
see it's perfect?"

Sometimes I'll log into alembic and read my mail with BABYL.

Why?
Pine/Alpine should show the text portion of any multipart messages perfectly reasonably,
and not even attempt to download non-text MIME content from your IMAP server. Crispin
designed the application and the protocol that way intentionally; his approach was always
that you should be able to run your MUA locally with just a 2400bps link to your IMAP
server, and get perfectly reasonable performance.

/me raises hand! Alpine ....
It's super fast to delete things. I run it under screen on a host I have
co-lo'ed at a tier 1 datacenter. 25 years now?

Several of my colleagues at a Prominent German Linux Distributor use
Mutt/Neomutt. I don't, I am on Thunderbird and rather like it.
