mutt, mutt-ng, etpan, elmo, are nice emailreaders included in grml.
I'd recomend mutt-ng. It's quite easy to setup with the grml-muttng script.
You might want to tweak the config but it really is ok. (use pops://pop.gmail.com as mailserver, mind the pop_s_). And G is the key for getting the mail ;).

For the receiving, it's been taken care of by mutt itself.

Procmail should take care of this. Or mailfilter (but I never used that).

For the sending, use the grml-postfix setup script (don't execute it more then once, it messes up the config file it seems).

Why move the mail, i think if you configure procmail good, you can have it delivered directly in the right place.
