OK, I will give it yet another whirl.
To be honest I use multiple identities for different email accounts, ie I read the admin mail box, plus my personal mail, and my wife's mail is open, etc, etc. However, i couldn't make point 3) below work easily. I think it may have been something like needing to set Aliases per folder instead of per email account?
Also point 5) I think I got frustrated because it kept crashing...?
Also, If I use courier IMAP is there any easy way to setup just ACAP and IMSP servers without needing a full Cyrus install? Will this allow me to keep my personal address book centralised on the server?
Also, I miss the nice tweaks from Outlook like address completion, and auto adding addresses to the address book
Finally I can't remember whether it was easy to make all folders show the unread count? I have quite a few folders and it is a pain to have to manually choose "show unread count" for each. This is my gripe with quite a lot of email programs.
Also, it doesn't look smart (to my eye)!
Thanks for the tips.

Here's some things I love about Mulberry (no I don't own any stock or
have an interest in the company.)
1) Independent windows
2) New message alerts - selectable by folder
3) Aliases - selectable by folder and you can "tie" folders to
identities, so every time you send or reply to a message in that folder,
that identity is used. Wonderful for those of us who wear many hats.
4) SSL and encryption integration, multiple methods
5) It's the only MUA I've ever used that you cannot crash - no matter
how much you shove at it
6) Will import from almost any format
7) Handles LDAP, ACAP and IMSP flawlessly
8) Allows disconnected operation - syncs upon reconnect
9) Best of all - it's RFC compliant in every way.
Yes, Simon, it is a GUI client, so only the other 99.99% of the world
can use it. :-)
Edward, you should try a little harder. The problem with Mulberry is
that it is so completely configurable that it's almost overwhelming,
even for geeks. But once you get the hang of it, all else pales in
comparison.
There - I'm done. I won't say any more on this OT subject.
