I may want to look into this.
squirrel is pretty slow on my P-II/400.
I'm not sure why... since the CPU doesn't show much load
(with top while I'm reading mail)
Some pages take 20-30 seconds to load/update.

What I do like about squirrel is that it uses fairly vanilla
folders.  I can easily move things about with procmail,
and already wrote scripts to automagically train/update
SA Bayes.

I also like the way squirrel handles identities.
This mail was sent with a new identity, just for NMLUG,
so the admin doesn't have to deal with my mail as
"out of list" when I use a different e-mail address.

Will there be any advantage for me to switch?
(faster index display would be worth it...)
