I moved from Apple Mail via Entourage (remember error 4362 and system crashes (on OS X)) to PowerMail, which works just fine for me. Goes to show that in a system with more than, say, 5 degrees of freedom, it's just about impossible to built anything that is fail-safe. Better to concentrate on building stuff that is safe to fail, and, so far, for me(!), PowerMail beats the other two in this respect.
