  38                         <p>
  39    Sup is a console-based email client for people with a lot of email.
  40    It supports tagging, very fast full-text search, automatic contact-
  41    list management, custom code insertion via a hook system, and more.
  42    If you're the type of person who treats email as an extension of your
  43    long-term memory, Sup is for you.
  44                 </p>
  45
  46                 <p>
  47                 Sup makes it easy to:
  48                 </p>
  49
  50                 <ul>
  51                         <li>
  52                         Handle massive amounts of email.
  53                         </li>
  54
  55                         <li>
  56                         Mix email from different sources: mbox files, IMAP folders,
  57             and Maildirs, across multiple machines.</li>
  58
  59                         <li>
  60                         Instantaneously search over your entire email collection.
  61                         Search over body text, or use a query language to combine
  62                         search predicates in any way.
  63                         </li>
  64
  65                         <li>
  66                         Handle multiple accounts. Replying to email sent to a
  67                         particular account will use the correct SMTP server, signature,
  68                         and from address.
  69                         </li>
  70
  71                         <li>
  72                         Add custom code to handle certain types of messages or to
  73                         handle certain types of text within messages.
  74                         </li>
  75
  76                         <li>
  77                         Organize email with user-defined labels, automatically track
  78                         recent contacts, and much more!
  79                         </li>
  80                 </ul>
  81
  82                 <p>
  83                 The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
  84                 everywhere.
