Ditto to that. Thunderbird (or rather whatever version I've frozen it 
at) is the closest match to my needs I've seen so far, but it still irks 
the heck out on me on various things. And as for modifying it, meh, well 
Mozilla's earned a reputation for being difficult to talk any 
user-oriented sense into, and life's too short for a big C++ codebase (I 
dunno, maybe they've started switching to Rust? In any case, rather just 
use D.) There's a ton of other things I'd like to do my own version of 
for similar reasons: Editor, browser, music/media manager, etc. Too much 
to do, not enough motivation ;)
