I've found Pegasus Mail 4.21c unusable with Courier IMAP accounts. Far
to many bugs. One being that the very nice 3-pane mode that Pegasus 4.0
added makes it where IMAP folders don't refresh automatically so you
have to select a folder other than INBOX then click back on INBOX to see
new mail. It also won't remember your folder collapse views, you have
to reopen every subfolder each time. The new IMAP caching code also
seems somewhat buggy and tends to need cleaning out with large folders
or you end up clicking on one message and seeing another. Pegasus 4.30
is suppossed to be out soon and should fix most of these issues
(although in my experience, soon for Pegasus releases means 3-6 months
minimum). I've found TB to do quite well with Courier as soon as you
drop IMAP cached connections down to a more sane 1 or 2.

You might want to give Pegasus Mail (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.pmail.com/">http://www.pmail.com/</a>) a try. I
have heard only good things about it.
