MailMate is an ambitious new email client for Mac OS X. It is currently in a beta state which means that it has not been thoroughly tested by users and it lacks a few features which can reasonably be expected from a modern email client.
Features

* All message headers and text bodies are indexed and are available for making advanced searches
* Multiple ways to easily use displayed names, subjects, dates and more to quickly search for related messages

* Search for specific body parts (images, pdf-files, embedded messages, etc.)
* Command-line program for alternative access to the database of messages (emate)
- Organize
* Easily move messages to any other mailbox using only a few keystrokes
* Mute messages in order to automatically handle later incoming related messages (they are marked as read and moved to the same location as their muted parents)
