I've tried using Mulberry.  It might not suck as an IMAP client, but if
memory serves it felt cluttered and overcomplicated.  There was no way
we
could sell it as an alternative to Outlook.

People keep telling me mutt is great as an IMAP client but I remain
to be convinced.  I do recall it being absolutely dreadful without
the experimental header cache stuff, and still not being all that good.

I'm not convinced that there's an unhateful MUA, though weirdly this
webmail client I'm using right now isn't so bad.
