I was going to stay out of this, but I'll add my vote in here for 
TBird, which I use for most of my mail, except for when I moderate 
email lists, at which time I use Emacs Mew.

One thing I like about TBird is its cross-platform-ness. I have to 
use Windows for a significant part of my work, and I am able to 
simply copy the full TBird directories over to Windows, and 
everything works fine (except that you might have to correct the 
pathname in the .ini file in the base directory if you already have 
it installed).

I have been using it for several years now, and I have built up my 
own Junk filter based on Subject and Content that filters out almost 
all the spam before even starting the standard Junk mail function 
(it's saved as a text file which I'd be happy to share with anyone 
who wants it).
