I've tried Thunderbird thanks and appreciate it can be made to work
quite similarly to Turnpike. I've also got Agent which is a very
comprehensive news and mail programme, it too can be made to
approximate Turnpike.

I used TB for a long while but occasionally a little filed mail would go
missing. It seemed to be a feature of mbox storage as I discovered
that MS mail systems have the same trouble; the advice offered for MS
users was to avoid compacting folders when online and I assume the
same would be true for TB users.

I switched to Claws as that uses a different storage system. Still keep
TB for the calendar (Lightning) as it's the only one that does
everything I need.
