Thank you Jonathan/Marck for your replies. I'll stick around on the mailing list and wait impatiently for v2. This is probably the wrong place to ask but are there any other mail clients for Windows that handle IMAP well and are customizable? At least until v2 is out then I'll buy me a license :) I'm really sick of Outlook :) Thanks again guys.
