Good Mailing List reader (one IMAP folder)?

Hi all, been using Evolution, but the way it handles tons of ML posts which have accumulated overnight bothers me, so much so I sometimes just go back to gmail's UI (single convo for each thread rocks!). Thunderbird doesn't handle things very much differently. In this case 'things' refers to having all my mailing list mail come into a single IMAP folder, with threads that can stretch to several dozen mails (one of the smaller kernel-related MLs) and many active threads at the same time (for example, the dovecot ML).

What do you all use to read your MLs? Any other mailing client good for this? Wouldn't mind just using evo for my 'normal' mails, contacts, and calendaring, having a side app which accesses IMAP just to read the MLs (the IMAP server is local on my machine anyway). Thanks for your ideas.

Hi AndyRTR, thanks for dropping by. If I may presume to ask more questions, what's good about claws-mail? What do you like about it? Is it more intuitive to you in the handling of ML threads?
