You might take a look at Zmail written by Dan Heller the author of MUSH.  It
runs in one of two modes, dumb terminal or GUI.  In dumb terminal it acts
much like the original mush mailer, and in the GUI mode it runs under X and
Open Look.  Under the GUI mode it has many of the MINE features.  Not having
done any work with MINE yet I can't tell how complete it is, so you'll
have to find out for yourself.  You can get a demo copy from ftp.ora.com in
/pub/z-code/zmail.
