<h1>Sup</h1>
- <p>
- Sup is a console-based email client that combines the best features
- of Gmail, mutt, and emacs. Sup matches the power of Gmail with the
- speed and simplicity of a console interface.

+ “Finally a mail client that does what we want, how we want it.”

+
+ <blockquote>
+ “Every other client we've tried is intolerable.”
+ </blockquote>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ “It's just what I wanted, but I hadn't realized what I wanted until I saw it.”
+ </blockquote>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ “Sup is almost to the point where I could jump ship from mutt.”
+ </blockquote>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ “I was previously intrigued by a gmail-styled
+ mutt-killer written in Ruby, but having actually spent a few
+ hours reading the docs, and trying out all the keys, and
+ reading the docs again, and trying the keys out again, and then
+ actually engaging in a bunch of practice usage runs, I now
+ officially can't fucking wait for the future of this thing; it
+ has my full attention.”

+
+ <p>
+ Sup is a console-based email client for people with a lot of email.
+ It supports tagging, very fast full-text search, automatic contact-
+ list management, custom code insertion via a hook system, and more.
+ If you're the type of person who treats email as an extension of your
+ long-term memory, Sup is for you.

<h2>Status</h2>
<p>
- The current version of Sup is 0.0.8, released 2007-04-01. This is a
- beta release. It is unix-centric and has no i18n support. It supports
- mbox, mbox over ssh, IMAP, IMAPS, and Maildir. It does not support POP
- or Gmail. I plan to fix all of these problems.
+ The current version of Sup is 0.8.1, released 2009-06-15. This is a
+ beta release. It supports mbox, IMAP, IMAPS, and Maildir mailstores.
</p>
- <p>
- Other than those limitations, it works great! I use it for my everyday
- email, and it makes dealing with 85,000 messages a breeze.
