Skin Thunderbird with a Mail look

Thunderbird has smart folders and priorities for those not on 10.4. Has labels, extension support and is a great alternative. On 10.4 I run Mail, on 10.3 I run Thunderbird.

I've used it and it is very Mail like. However I think there were scroll bar issues. I also wrote the developer to do a Mail Tiger skin but he hasn't gotten to it yet.

Pretty darn accurate? It only just about manages to look vaguely similar.
