Mozilla Thunderbird is an email client,news feed client and newsgroup designed around simplicity and fullfeaturedness while avoiding bloat. It supports IMAP, POP,S/MIME, SMTP, and OpenPGP encryption (with the Enigmail extension). Similar to Firefox, it has a wide variety of extension and addons available for download that add more features.
Thunderbird is available on Archlinux Repository. To install it:
$sudo pacman -S thunderbird
And run Thunderbird, you will be asked for configuring email.
You can skip it, or configure later. I just close it by clicking [x]. Then here's UI of thunderbird.
