In January, we (ZipCode Software) are releasing beta versions of ZipMail.
This is Mush completely rewritten to support everything it does now,
plus open look and motif.  It's a superset of Mush (which means it's
backwards compatible with Mail and sun's Mailtool), but it also supports
multiple folders and many other things.  Of course, it's portable to just
about everything, but availability for any particular platform depends
on demand.

For details, call Siren Software at 415-322-0600 (they are the publishers).
