Currently I use Claws Mail as mail client. It is quite old (one of the few gtk2 programs I still use) and is not easily configurable with configuration files.
My accounts have to be set up on every machine on its own, my filter rules don’t get synced (this is why I only have them on nunotaba).

~~Either think up of some way to declaratively configure Claws Mail or maybe~~ switch to another program that can be configured declaratively with home-manager → neomutt.

Just found this: https://github.com/soywod/himalaya
This is still lacking some features I want to have:

notmuch support (https://github.com/soywod/himalaya/issues/57)
nice handling of html mails

I am now switching to aerc, which has reasonably many features and supports notmuch.
