From the Linux desktop survey the most wanted application is an Emailer. So let’s get this problem solved, a cross-platform Emailer which is good enough to replace Outlook as the default Emailer for the masses.

Yeah, let's get that problem solved! Why didn't anyone think of that before? =)

I don't know from wyoGuide, or why it's a requirement (or why POP3 needs to be in a separate library (or, TBH, why there are implementation requirements at all, at this point)) but your description is not very far from either Thunderbird or post-Windows- port Evolution, as I read it. (Maybe Kmail, I dunno anything about it.)

The Linux desktop survey didn't make it clear to me what specifically was wrong with the current offerings in terms of email, though I'll confess that I saw it was about enterprise deployment and started skimming. Clearly (?) there is some critical failing in the current Evo/Tbird/Kmail offerings, but I don't think it's anything on your current list, because that stuff is pretty much covered.

Anyone know more?

Mike
