There is a plan to extend it by adding "Cache messages persistently
(between sessions)" (shorter description is needed, suggestions are
welcome). Currently balsa caches messages in a subdirectory of /home
which can be slow and redundant if balsa is used in an environment
with a central NFS/AFS server and "near" imap server. In such a case,
storing downloaded messages in eg. /tmp is more resource-friendly.
