I lost the thread on the Sylpheed suggestion so I am replying here to let everyone know that installing (dead easy) and using (even easier) Sylpheed on my Windows XP netbook solved all of what I thought were Dovecot/IMAP problems. Apologies to Timo for the unnecessary complaints about non-existent problems. Both Dovecot and Sylpheed out-of-the-box will work without a lot of config if any at all. --David.

So what IMAP clients do people prefer these days? Preferably windows or cross platform and it needs to have decent key bindings because (probably like many of you) I get 100s of emails a day via lists and anything that speeds my way through them is good.
You simply cannot beat gnus for configurability, functionality and raw power. But you have to be pretty dedicated to get it configured at all, much less customized to your preferences.
I like Mulberry as a GUI client. It works on Mac Windows and Linux/Unix.
