I've been trying balsa (www.balsa.net). It's pretty OK except that the UI
hangs while downloading huge messages (not multithreaded I guess). Quite
stable, and it's GNOME compliant (e.g. it can read the system-wide MIME
handlers so it can intelligently deal with attachments). Yes, Melissa for
Linux comes ever closer..

Configuring an IMAP inbox is kinda non-straightforward though. All inbox
configuration allows you is POP. But you can add an IMAP folder to your
mailbox list, and use that as your inbox..

See ice.mozcom.com/user/orly/balsa.png (just 45K) for an example. I
suspect a lot of people who cant wait for Evolution to get less buggy will
want to give this a try..
