Publisher's Description
From Cyrus Daboo:
Mulberry is a high-performance, scalable, and graphically groovy internet mail client. It uses the IMAP (IMAP4rev1, IMAP4, and IMAP2bis)protocol for accessing mail messages on a server, the standard SMTP protocol for sending messages, and does lots and lots of things withMIME parts for mixed text and "attachments" of many different types of files and data. This new release features S/MIME and PGP8 support, as well as support for up to eight user-defined labels on messages.
What's new in this version:
- Add option to automatically adjust timezones to new US rules as of March 2007.
- Update built-in timezones to new rules for March 2007.

"Best email client I have used !"
Version: Mulberry 4.0.8
Pros
This is the best full featured email client that supports multiple imap and pop accounts, has all the security features and is available on multiple platforms. When compared to other email clients this stands out as a far advanced software that supports encryption and digital signature. This is a free software and in features is more advanced than even very expensive commercial email clients. This is largely used in universities and also has a server version.
Cons
The only con is it does not support Bayesian client-side email filtering which is not a problem and the other minor problem is multiple signed messages received failed in tests on ver 3.1 although many improvements have been made in later versions and minor problems hopefully resolved.

"Crowded, ugly and unhelpful"
Version: Mulberry 4.0.8
Pros
It was quick and easy to uninstall.
Cons
'Graphically groovy'? Maybe the Mac version looks better, but the Windows version looked ugly and Windows 98ish - very unnatural. Opening window for account setup OK, but no place for a password. I can only guess it would have asked later.
Summary
First impressions count - and this one died in the throat. Users need to be able to enter at least their account password on the setup screen, and although it had a security drop-down, I saw nowhere to specify the ports to use. App managed to freeze within 30 seconds, and after a restart didn't even show the box indicating what was happening right now - only the status bar showed that. Since it seemed unable to connect to the mail account I tried I didn't try investigating performance any further, but I seriously doubt the claim that it's 'highly scalable'. This is *not* my e-mail client of choice.
