Me and my palmIIIxe could probably do some testing for you.

Well, erm... I would welcome (1) MIME-awareness and (2) message
recoding (eg. the preferred encoding for my language is, what a
pity, windows-1250 [it means: that is, what known to me Polish palm
users have], which isn't compatible with standard ISO-8859-2), (3) maybe
native POP3/IMAP support?
(except (3) the reencoding of messages could take place during
uploading mail to pilot via some pilot-mail-alike tool)
best regards,
