I was wondering if anyone had any comments about ZMail for Dos/Windows and 
Mac?  The current version of Zmail only supports Unix, but the other 
versions are supposed to be out soon and I was hoping that someone could 
shed some light on what they might be like?

Does ZMail support IMAP and or MIME?  (I heard that the current version did, 
but that all messages were 'wrapped' in the X-Zmail type and not 
subdivided into true MIME multipart messages for use with other mailers).
Are the mail messages stored on a users individual PC or on a central Unix 
mailhost?
Can you access your mail (including read mail etc...) and view the 
same mailbox no matter what platform you are on? (ala IMAP)?
What about binary file attachments? Graphics viewing and support?
X.500 or X.400 support?

Thanks for any information that you can provide!
