I am the Celeste current mantainer.
I am fixing bug for the meantime, and I am planning some minor
enhancements, like smtp server passoword support and multiple
configuration. I am proceeding slowly because of lack of time.
IMAP and NNTP support is currently not planned.

You can post Celeste bugs on squeak dev or send it directly to me.
You should only use the word "Celeste" on the subject, to get my
attention ;)

Hmmmm I don't know this problem. I will try to reduce db
back-compatibility problems in the future.

Celeste is pleasant to use, especially the auto filtering (you can
filter mail in a snap).
If you have special needs (like multiple accounts, news support, etc)
you can look also at ThunderBird (it is very huge and a bit buggy in my
own opinion, but I use it at office and it works).
