I would like to second gnus, I've been using it for a couple of years
now and have been *very* happy with it.

I'm also using the development version of gnus, but haven't noticed the
searching features, could you point these out, a key binding or command
name?

Org-mime can be used separate from any particular email client (as long
as Emacs know your email address).  Try loading contrib/org-mime.el and
then calling `org-mime-subtree' from within a subtree of an Org-mode
buffer (you can set email headers with MAIL_TO, MAIL_CC, etc...).  Also,
from within an email composition buffer you can select a region of text
in Org-mode markup and then call org-mime-htmlize, to convert the region
to an HTML mail part.
