+Claws Mail is an email client (and news reader), based on GTK+ featuring:
+
+ * Quick response
+ * Graceful, and sophisticated interface
+ * Easy configuration, intuitive operation
+ * Abundant features
+ * Extensibility
+
+The appearance and interface are designed to be familiar to new users coming
+from other popular email clients, as well as experienced users. Almost all
+commands are accessible with the keyboard.
+
+The messages are managed in the standard MH format, which features fast
+access and data security. You'll be able to import your emails from almost
+any other email client, and export them just as easily.
+
+Lots of extra functionality, like an RSS aggregator, calendar, or laptop LED
+handling, are provided by extra plugins.

+* libetpan is required for IMAP support, it can be found at slackbuilds.org
