I tried using mail(1) on 2.11BSD the other day. It had some nice features
that I never paid attention to in the past. Seemed actually quite
functional. I wanna try living with it for a week, just for hubris /
bragging rights.

I was using it yesterday. Because it is so basic, Mail is just the thing
for
firing one-liners at mailing list managers and the like, without risk of it
"helpfully" sending me a copy of the outgoing message as is the habit of
other
MUAs.
I'm not sure I can remember how to *read* mail with it though.
