Hi,

Get the latest version on mutt from www.mutt.org and compile it with --enable-pop3 ( or --enable-imap ).
key "G" connects to the pop server and retrieves the mail on mutt.

The conventional way to do it is, ofcourse use fetchmail to retrieve it to /var/spool/mail/{your-user-name} and
distributing it with procmail to various folders.

hope it helps :)
