I've come to the conclusion that there is no decent mail client that
allows for effective communication with those of a Microsoft
persuasion. This lappie uses thunderbird, which does all you want (
although I always recommend IMAP over POP ). My main dev machine uses
evolution, which screws itself in knots on a regular basis. Neither
deliver MS mails in an equivalent format to that intended by the
sender, especially if they decide to use rtf to send.
Working with the corporate world means that we get a lot of those MS
emails. Sadly the users have no idea what they're doing, so the only
way around is to install lookout extension which helps a lot.
Thunderbird will do all you want, as long as you combine it with some
extensions like lookout, google provider, etc
I'd also suggest an imap server rather than popping mail.
And being actively developed is always a plus.
