Y'all could go shopping for mail service providers.

Mutt users probably know that webmail things usually are not as good as 
a dedicated mail reader.

Also, mail service provided by ISPs generally is not all that good. 
Questionable antispam, unreliable IMAP servers... I guess ISPs consider 
that a sideline, and don't try too hard.

You'll probably get better results from dedicated mail service 
providers. You might have to pay a little money for that, but not much.

I'm happy with Panix. That's a small shop in New York City that does a 
number of things, including mail.

Fastmail is a large mail service with a good reputation. It's not 
expensive -- looks like base price is $5 / month.
