PMMail does that just fine, it's in the "Account settings" under the tab
"Preferences". And PMMail honores the requested start minimized: yes it starts 
minimized if you ask. PMMail has a fine filter system to automate the handling 
of messages, PMMail can also call external programs for this and this includes 
REXX files. PMMail has also (in the account settings) fields (hooks) for REXX
files to call for "Message Send Exit", "Message Receive Exit", "Custom REXX
Send", "Custom REXX Receive"; and in the PMMail settings under the REXX tab
"Program Open Exit" and "Program Close Exit"; all of which can be set to run
in the foreground or in the background.

I use the OS/2 TCP/IP stack on OS/2 Warp 4 fixpack 9, works great! :)
