Mailpile depends on lxml, which is a binder for two C libraries (libxml2 and libxslt). The GCC compiler needs to be installed on your os for those dependencies to work but is unfortunately not included with MacOS 10.6.8.
Some people are using XCode (that comes with GCC), others skip downloading the massive XCode installer and use GCC packaged by Kenneth Reitz. Long story short, to install Mailpile you have to have the GCC compiler installed, however you do it, and install lxml when GCC has been successfully installed. You will find several discussion threads regarding this issue if you run into any problems.
