There are several email clients under development that may eventually be
worth using. "Penelope/Eudora 8" is an add-on/replacement (I'm not sure
which) based on Thunderbird and Eudora. See
<http://wiki.mozilla.org/Penelope_Extensions> for Penelope version
notes.

Letters.app is a brand new project which may turn into something
worthwhile.

you may have to cut and paste to get the last part of it.)

MailForge is another one that I haven't tried.
