I've followed Digsby for a while, but it's an instant messenger /
social network aggregator, not an email client. It's much like a fancy
Pidgin and it's not open source, so I don't see how I can "take a
look" at it.

The developers for Digsby announced it on the wxPython list for some
reason, so I was a little disappointed when the source was
unavailable.
