   Er...what's wrong with 'mail -f /path/to/mailfile' (assumed to be issued
as su, of course, since without it you'd only have access to your own
mailbox)? It's fast and clean for quick clean-ups, and although it's hardly a
"real" email client I find myself using it even with my own mailbox when I'm
in a hurry and am looking for something specific.
