Works great in Eudora, Thunderbird and gmail.  Filtering in Yahoo!
isn't as good, but still usable. The ability to thread conversations
(keeping a common subject thread together) makes it easier to delete
the stuff you don't care about, especially in gmail. I would be lost
if my mail wasn't pre-sorted.
