Well, assuming that I can't get enigmail-seamonkey fixed up, I was
wondering if I could get a recommendation about a mailer.  This
following is my list of requirements, so please don't lets open up a
mailer free-for-all (I like the ACME mailer!) unless it has what I'm
after, ok?

Seeing as I initially liked Seamonkey, it should surprise noone that I
want a graphical UI (no ascii interface, please, I don't care how much
you like it) and it works with the latest version of the gnupg port
(version 2.04) and not the older gnupg1 port, so I can use my present
keys to sign/encrypt stuff. Lastly, I has to allow for an imap interface
to the mail.  That's all: GUI, GNUpg-2.04, and IMAPv4

mail/mulberry

The best MUA I've ever used, and it meets all three of your requirements easily. The one complaint users consistently have (but not me!) about it is that it doesn't "do" HTML email (meaning that it won't display the images inline and won't run scripts.)

It's the geek's email client, loaded with useful features such as a single "new mail" folder that displays *all* new mail regardless of account or folder (so you seldom have to expand your account folders), multiple identities, the ability to "lock" accounts to specific signatures, identities and smtp servers so replies are "automatically" correct, unlimited accounts with no sharing of inboxes or other folders, effortless handling of both POP and IMAP4 regardless of folder size and/or message size, and, well, I could go on and on but I won't.

Mulberry *was* closed source but is now open source and is actively developed. It handles iCal, WebDav Cal, IMSP, ACAP and LDAP addressbooks and several other protocols including Sieve filtering. I use it to access Exchange (IMAP), Cyrus IMAP, Courier IMAP and two different POP accounts.

You might love it.  You might hate it.  But you should definitely try it.
