About half a year ago I also investigated for a new email client because I 
wanted to change my daily work platform from OS/2 to Linux.
About your comments regarding Messenger, Ouloook etc.: You're absolutely 
right!
After all I figured out two alternatives for me: PINE, if you are willing to 
accept a text mode interface, some "hand work" and no IMAP, or XFMAIL if you 
accept the old X-forms look and feel. XFMAIL probably has to be recompiled, 
because the standard binary limits the size of a single mail to something 
about 3 MByte. XFMAIL supports POP and IMAP as well - not perfectly but it 
works. Sometimes it crashes, but after all, you've got the source code and can 
fix it ;-). Nevertheless, after 4 weeks of trail I was annoyed enough to 
switches back to OS/2 and PMMail ...
