Well, there's more than one ways to achieve the same result.

You can continue to use a webmail account with a text mode web browser.  There 
are a few to choose from - some will work better than others:

 www-client/elinks

 www-client/links

 www-client/lynx
 
If your webmail provider has a correctly coded their webmail page then you 
should not have a problem accessing your messages with any of the above 
browsers, using SSL connection.


Alternatively, you can use a mail client from within a console or an X 
terminal like:

 mail-client/mutt

 mail-client/alpine

 mail-client/pine

Most of these require that you learn their respective key-binding commands, 
but have extensive documentation.  mutt is probably used more widely these 
days and there are a few users in this M/L familiar with it.

HTH.
