-<h1>Sup</h1>
-
-<p>
-Sup is an attempt to take the UI innovations of web-based email
-readers (ok, really just GMail) and to combine them with the
-traditional wholesome goodness of a console-based email client.
-</p>
-<p>
-Sup is designed to work with massive amounts of email, potentially
-spread out across different mbox files, IMAP folders, and GMail
-accounts, and to pull them all together into a single interface.
-</p>
-<p>
-The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
-everywhere.

-<h2>Status</h2>
-
-<p>The current version of Sup is 0.0.1, released November 28th, 2006.
-This is an alpha release. It is unix-centric, mbox-specific, and has
-no i18n support. I plan to fix all of these problems.</p>
-
-<p>Other than those limitations, it works great. I use it for my
-everyday email.</p>
-
-<h2>Getting it</h2>
-
-<p> You can download Sup releases from the <a href="http://rubyforge.org/projects/sup/">Sup RubyForge page</a>. If you have RubyGems installed, simply say "gem install sup".

+                       <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.
+               </p>
+
+               <p>
+               Sup makes it easy to:
+               </p>
+
+               <ul>
+                       <li>
+                       Handle massive amounts of email.
+                       </li>
+
+                       <li>
+                       Mix email from different sources: mbox files, IMAP folders,
+            and Maildirs, across multiple machines.</li>
+
+                       <li>
+                       Instantaneously search over your entire email collection.
+                       Search over body text, or use a query language to combine
+                       search predicates in any way.
+                       </li>
+
+                       <li>
+                       Handle multiple accounts. Replying to email sent to a
+                       particular account will use the correct SMTP server, signature,
+                       and from address.
+                       </li>
+
+                       <li>
+                       Add custom code to handle certain types of messages or to
+                       handle certain types of text within messages.
+                       </li>
+
+                       <li>
+                       Organize email with user-defined labels, automatically track
+                       recent contacts, and much more!
+                       </li>
+               </ul>
+
+               <p>
+               The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
+               everywhere.
