Not sure which Mac - but the OP's client should be able to utilize any of 'many' alternative MUA to Apple Mail. Ones that JFW. Among the easiest for even a noob to install and configure are the cross-platform browser-maker's freebies: - SeaMonkey's built-in MUA - Thunderbird - Opera's built-in MUA (Opera CAVEAT: not everyone wants all messages for all accounts stored in a single DB, and - though it defies logic - Opera's DB backend was nowhere near as nimble as SeaMonkey's storage structure when you have over 100,000 messages IMAP-synced on a dozen accounts. Perhaps that has been fixed.) Plus: The browser-suite based ones can also make Webmail accounts easier to handle in the same ergo-space for those who also have such.
