For security reasons, we are looking to give employees receive-only email addresses.
In this context, I am looking for an email client allowing - and ideally only permitting - to read emails via IMAP without setting up SMTP. Thunderbird allows doing so but this is clearly not the intended usage, the user interface emphasizes sending too much (and the application has too many features to my liking). I am looking for a simple program in the Unix spirit whose sole role is to fetch emails for the account provided in its configuration file (no interactive configuration needed).
This can even be a terminal-based tool, however it must be easy enough to use for a non-power user (training can be provided but this cannot involve remembering dozens of keyboard bindings). Also, opening attachments should be easy enough.
Does anyone has any idea?
Thanks!
