Subject: Mulberry
Thanks to Ben for posting the Mulberry info earlier. Mulberry is
shaping up to be a very robust GUI email client. It does not offer
the comprehensive "feature set" of Outlook, and quite frankly, they
are not the best graphic designers in the world, but it works, it
looks OK, and it is very configurable. If you use IMAP and
want offline/disconnected support, there is probably no better
client. And since it exists in Windows and Mac versions, you can use
the same client across pretty much all platforms. I have tried it on
Mac, Linux and FreeBSD (under linux emulation). It works fine in each
of them.
Mulberry features:

Unfortunately, Mulberry is neither 'free beer' nor 'free speech'
free. After the demo period it costs $36 to keep using it. However,
it looks like they have managed to do what no open source developer has
done (yet).
Best
