Koen,
PM is a pure text based MUA for the MacOS.
There's a new a new beta version available, which fixes some Lion bugs and will
be compatible with 10.8.
The version can be found here:
<http://powermail.simplenet.com/pm6.1.1b2.dmg>
Grouping E-Mail is available since quite some time in PM and PM has the best
search engine of all mail clients I know of.
GMail also works with PM as well as html rendering, you just can't compose
mails with html, it'll be always text.
If you need html composing and more funky stuff you might want to use another
MUA.
The same is valid if you need to have simultaneous access to several mail
accounts with IMAP.
If you need POP only PM is imho still the best MUA for the Mac :-)
I still hope CTMDEV will change the IMAP implementation in the near future.
That's actually my no1 feature request ... Jerome are you listening ^_^
cheers
Matthias
