The remote host is missing an update to balsa announced via advisory FEDORA-2007-1447.
Balsa is a GNOME email client which supports mbox, maildir, and mh local mailboxes, and IMAP4 and POP3 remote mailboxes. Email can be sent via sendmail or SMTP. Optional multithreading support allows for non-intrusive retrieval and sending of mail. A finished GUI similar to that of the Eudora email client supports viewing images inline, saving message parts, viewing headers, adding attachments, moving messages, and printing messages.
