If you count Java email clients, there is a choice of two (that I
know of) which are not so far from PMMail in functionality, and might
meet some people's requirements on Linux:
JStreet Mailer from Innoval. Innoval have recently dropped this
product, and have made it available free (for now) - it can be picked
up from http://stores.yahoo.com/innoval. But someone has decompiled
it and is producing a series of bug fixes, speedups and improvements
which can be found at http://paul.vanKeep.com/jstreet/. The
filtering isn't as powerful as PMMail, but it does IMAP, and personas
(signatures, etc) can be automatically linked to destination address.
Handling of non-ascii characters is currently laughable, but I hope
that will be addressed in time.
Emerald Mail (commercial) from http://www.maccasoft.com/emerald/.
