  <p>This is a FAQ for when <app>Balsa</app> appears to lock up, or
  other things that you think should be happening aren't. If you
  can't figure out how to do something but <app>Balsa</app> lets you do
  it, that's a bug. Report it.</p>

    <p>Odds are it isn't. Watch out for:</p>

        <p>If you don't have threading, <app>Balsa</app> will stop
        responding when it sends and receives email. Use threading,
        if possible.</p>

      <item>
        <p><app>Balsa</app> is downloading a new message or closing a
        large mailbox. This could take a while, especially when
        this file is accessed via NFS.</p>

        <p>A dialog box is being displayed but it is obscured by
        another one. This seems to happen under Sawfish. Try moving
        the windows around and see if there's a hidden dialog
        somewhere.</p>

    <p>Were you checking your mail? Probably. This is the window
    that displays progress for retrieving <link xref="glossary#pop">POP3</link> mail. If you
    don't have any <link xref="glossary#pop">POP3</link> accounts, it will still appear -- but
    it'll disappear almost instantly. You can disable displaying
    this window in preferences.</p>

    <p><app>Balsa</app> attempts to open the file
    <file>~/.gnome/GnomeCard.gcrd</file>. If you're not using this
    file, you may need to create a symlink so that <app>Balsa</app> can
    open it.</p>
    <p>There have been slight changes in <app>GnomeCard</app>'s file
    format between its various versions. <app>Balsa</app> is known to
    work with at least <app>GnomeCard</app> version 1.0.10 and probably
    most other releases.</p>
