Text-based email clients may be useful for users with [[visual impairment]] or partial [[blindness]] allowing [[speech synthesis]] or text-to-speech software to read content to users. Text-based email clients also allow to manage communication via simple remote sessions, e. g. per [[SSH]], for instance when it is not possible to install a local GUI-client and/or access mail via Web interface. Also users may prefer [[text-based user interface]]s in general.
