I can click on "check" and it appears to be checking for mail but produces an

up process
again thinking I may have had a typo, but still no luck.
Also after having run Balsa from a terminal I see the following:

Network is available (Tue May 10 16:31:42 2016)
So "** Message: CMS protocol not supported, S/MIME will not work!" is the
problem?
I don't think so since S/MIME is just a method for signing emails with gpg
Can I fix that? If so what must I do ...
It looks like you don't have gnupg2-smime installed.
I've tried this running both xfce and gnome in Fedora 23 and in a VM with Fedora
24b,
the result is always the same, I can't collect any mail with balsa ... Same error
message.
Any thoughts appreciated,
FWIW, I installed balsa on a VM and was able to collect mails from gmail.
