Starting with version 0.9.8, mu provides an emacs-based e-mail client which uses mu as its back-end: mu4e.

Through mu, mu4e sits on top of your Maildir (which you update with e.g. offlineimap, mbsync or fetchmail). mu4e is designed to enable super-efficient handling of e-mail; searching, reading, replying, moving, deleting. The overall 'feel' is a bit of a mix of dired and Wanderlust.

Features include:

Fully search-based: there are no folders, only queries
UI optimized for speed with quick key strokes for common actions
Fully documented, with example configurations
Asynchronous: heavy actions never block emacs
Write rich-text e-mails using /org-mode/ (experimental)
Address auto-completion based on your messages -- no need for managing address books
Extendable in many places using custom actions

For all the details, please see the manual, or check the screenshots below. mu4e is part of the normal mu source package and also available on Github.
