17                 reading the docs again, and trying the keys out again, and then
18                 actually engaging in a bunch of practice usage runs, I now
19                 officially can't fucking wait for the future of this thing; it

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

101                 <h2>Status</h2>
102
103                 <p>
104                 The current version of Sup is 0.1, released 2007-07-17. This is a
105                 beta release. It supportsm box, mbox over ssh, IMAP, IMAPS, and Maildir. It does not support POP
106                 or Gmail accounts yet.
107                 </p>
108
109                 <p>
110                 There are a few known bugs, but overall it works great! I use it for my everyday
111                 email, and it makes dealing with 85,000 messages a breeze.
