+A mail reader for GNOME 2. It supports local mail, pop3, and IMAP. It can
+view mail files in mbox, maildir, and mh format.
+
+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.
