On my laptop I try to create an environment that will be kept to a minimum of the mouse usage.
I use awesome wm and firefox+vimperator. Unfortunately, in the case of email, I have not yet worked out a workable solution. Now I use Yandex.Mail (web-interface) or Thunderbird (and even Muttator) and both of this solutions don't help...
My current goal is to find the perfect console mail client.
I've setted up offlineimap+msmtp, and now I have Maildir with my emails. So I'm looking for a suitable MUA.

- Fast processing about 45k+ emails
- Comfortable address book with autocomplete like in web-version
- Labels
- It is desirable vim-like interface, and be sure to vim as a text editor*emphasized text*

- Notmuch. Developers wrote that they were inspired by Sup. Notmuch integrated with a search engine and has a lot of frontends: http://notmuchmail.org/frontends/. Among them, I have not yet found the perfect
Actually, the question is: can you advise me something specific (mot necessary from list above)? Maybe you have disappointing experience? Any information would be helpful!
