Can OE be made secure??

I've tried The Bat, Thunderbird, Eudora, M2 and a few other email
clients... problem is, they all SUCK. The only one I ever used that
didn't suck was OE. But in terms of
security, its legendary in how much it sucks. I know that SP2
implemented some
improvements in security for OE, but I'm guessing that's a finger in
the dyke (no "dyke jokes" please, that's just witless and clicheed).
I'm wondering if OE can be made as secure as ANYTHING, with the
addition of 3rd party programs, or "tips and tricks" to ensure
security. I'll even settle for "as secure as The Bat".
At the very least, my Kaspersky anti virus works with OE databases,
whereas it doesn't with most other programs. But I'm more concerned
with exploits and things like that. I did a specific search for 3rd
party security programs for OE and did not find anything. So what if I
don't use address book feature, or is there some way to turn off HTML
to avoid having my IP address or other info broadcast to the sender's
site?
