One of the biggest, least discussed problems with email clients is 
stability.

IMO
Eudora doesn't have it.
Apple Mail doesn't have it.
MailSmith doesn't have it.
Outlook doesn't have it.
Emailer under OS 8 didn't have it.

If you database can get corrupted with heavy use, it is not worth it for 
all the features in the world. The multiple mailbox system is normally 
safest, where only one at a time can get corrupted, but hasn't proven to 
be the case.

The key for me moving is to have three main characteristics:
Stability of the mail storage system, including exporting to safe systems
Handling of multiple accounts with ease
Ability to disable all html/font/pdf/graphics functionality.

otherwise, it will suck terribly in comparison.
