New features in this fork

• Basic mouse support.
• Patchwork integration. As the ., o, x in the screenshot, patch states can be easily observed.

Features / Problems

Features:

• GMail-like thread-centered archiving, tagging and muting
• Handling mail from multiple mbox and Maildir sources
• Blazing fast full-text search with a rich query language
• Multiple accounts - pick the right one when sending mail
• Ruby-programmable hooks
• Automatically tracking recent contacts

Current limitations:

• Sup does in general not play nicely with other mail clients, not all changes can be synced back to the mail source. Refer to Maildir Syncback in the wiki for this recently included feature. Maildir Syncback allows you to sync back flag changes in messages and to write messages to maildir sources.

• Unix-centrism in MIME attachment handling and in sendmail invocation.
