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.
* Support for local mailbox formats: mbox, maildir, mh
* Allows nested mailboxes
* Support for POP3 and IMAP mail access protocols
* Printing
* Spell Checking
* Multi-threaded mail retrevial (optional)
* MIME support (view images inline, save parts)
* Supports SMTP and/or use of local MTA, ie. Sendmail
* Address Book that integrates with GnomeCard
* Highly configurable
* Active, open development
* Multiple character sets for composing and reading messages
* Allows file attachments to outgoing messages
* GPG/OpenPGP mail signing and encryption
