What version can I use?



I'm hoping someone here may be able to advise me.

I'm running RH6.2, Windowmaker and Gnome 2.2.14 (if I've read the right
bit), plus some KDE apps, noticeably KPPP.   Yes I know it's a mishmash 
but it works  :)

I was happily running Kmail 1.0.29, until it struck the 'billennium 
bug'.   Kmail 2.x  is supposed to be immune but it only comes built into 
KDE 2.x which is many megabytes download and I don't really want to go 
there....     I don't really want to upgrade to RH 7 either, yet.    
I'm now using Sylpheed but don't really like the 'look and feel' of it.
And I don't need a heap of features like thread following, hierarchical 
folders and whatnot.

I'd like to try  Balsa, but if I try to install the latest RPM it lists a
whole string of other dependencies.    I looked at the Balsa download 
page and it listed a raft of earlier versions including one that was 
compiled in RH 6.2 but when I clicked on that I got 'can't find server'.

So my question is, which version of Balsa is best for my current RH 6.2 
setup and where could I find it?   (I did try looking around the Balsa site 
but if it's there I missed it).   If the answer is 'the latest' then I'll 
try and find all the other files it requires and install them, hoping 
they won't screw anything else on my system   :)

As I said, any advice would be welcome.

Chris
