 <h1>Sup</h1>
 
-<p>
-Sup is an attempt to take the UI innovations of web-based email
-readers (ok, really just GMail) and to combine them with the
-traditional wholesome goodness of a console-based email client.
-</p>
-<p>
-Sup is designed to work with massive amounts of email, potentially
-spread out across different mbox files, IMAP folders, and GMail
-accounts, and to pull them all together into a single interface.
-</p>
-<p>
-The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
-everywhere.
+<p> Sup is a console-based email client that combines the best
+    features of GMail, mutt, and emacs. Sup matches the power of GMail
+    with the speed and simplicity of a console interface.
 </p>
 
+<p> Sup makes it easy to:
+
+<ul>
+
+<li> Handle massive amounts of email. </li>
+
+<li> Mix email from different sources: mbox files (even across
+     different machines), IMAP folders, POP accounts, and GMail
+     accounts. </li>
+
+<li> Instantaneously search over your entire email collection. Search
+     over body text, or use a query language to combine search
+     predicates in any way. </li>
+
+<li> Handle multiple accounts. Replying to email sent to a particular
+     account will use the correct SMTP server, signature, and from
+     address.
+
+<li> Add custom code to handle certain types of messages or to handle
+     certain types of text within messages. </p>
+
+<li> Organize email with user-defined labels, automatically track
+     recent contacts, and much more! </li> </ul> </p>
+
+<p> The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
+    everywhere. </p>
