I'm not totally sure it will meet all your needs, but Trojita has the nice 
advantage of being rigorous about asking the IMAP server for *only* the 
information it needs *right now*, and not doing the kinds of stupid things 
that, say, Thunderbird does such as download headers for *all* messages before 
showing you any header for any message. Even if your inbox has 10000 messages, 
if your screen can show only 30 headers, it'll fetch 30 and show them to you 
immediately before doing anything else.

Threaded view depends on the IMAP server's capabilities (which means, no luck 
for gmail). And it's not especially feature rich. But I use it because I abhor 
superfluous network traffic*, and Trojita is the smartest about this that I've 
ever seen.

Very responsive developer community, too.

* I live in China, where access to USA-based email servers can be slow. So 
efficient use of network resources is a big deal for me.
