I missed the Sieve management. Where is that?

Do you have patches? Perhaps on Github?

My only real desire for better presentation is to display images. That's 
why I run Thunderbird in parallel.

Hmm, I was going to suggest the other mailing list for developers but it 
looks like Cyrus removed it from the list server. :( The archives have 
some historical value.

I find the code too arcane to put serious effort into. I'd find it 
easier to locate a good mail library and hook it up to a portability 
layer like Qt or wxWidgets and recreate Mulberry from the ground up. 
Modern tools and libraries have come a long way since Mulberry went into 
mothballs, and I'd expect a rewrite would be a lot more stable and 
secure. (Normally I'd vote against such an effort but most of the meat 
of Mulberry has already been rewritten elsewhere and one would just have 
to add back the things that make Mulberry unique.)
