When switching from a KDE based Linux to a Gnome based one many years ago I had to find a replacement for KMail. Since I design Smalltalk computers, it seemed silly not to use Celeste even if I had to put up with some limitations and add a bunch of bug fixes (all dealing with tolerating broken emails). It is not something I would give to a "normal" person to use, but it is more than good enough to me. The main problem is that it does a reasonable job of showing incoming emails (though attachments show up as links at the end of the text) but when editing an email to send it shows the raw headers and MIME for any attachment.

Welp. I didn't see your comment until now. I wonder if you'll see/get this reply. What do you mean by "design Smalltalk computers"? That sounds really interesting. Do you mean you configure them to autoboot Linux into Squeak or similar? What are they used for? (...I'm guessing education-type environments...?) I can understand what you mean. I tried to get it working, as I said, and while I got the main window open I had no idea how to configure it (and I must admit I don't have much incentive to.)
