-A mail reader for GNOME 2. It supports local mail, pop3, and IMAP. It can
-view mail files in mbox, maildir, and mh format.
+Balsa is a mail reader for the GNOME Desktop. It supports many features:
-The pop3 support is not complete. All mail retrieved will be left on the
-server, and hence retrieved again if not deleted through some other pop3
-client. Using fetchmail would be recommended to retrieve pop3 mail.
-
-Balsa is probably not fully usable as one's primary mail client at this
-time. However, it is under active development and fits with other gnome
-applications.
