+## 🐾 Why Create Bichon?
 
+A few months ago, I released **rustmailer**, an email API middleware:  
+https://github.com/rustmailer/rustmailer
 
-Bichon is designed for **speed**, **simplicity**, and **efficiency**, letting you manage and archive emails effortlessly.
+Since then, I’ve received many emails asking whether it could also archive emails, perform unified search, and support full-text indexing—not just querying recipients.  
+But rustmailer was designed as a middleware focused on providing API services.  
+Adding archiving and full-text search would complicate its core purpose and go far beyond its original scope.
 
+Meanwhile, I realized that email archiving itself only requires a small portion of rustmailer’s functionality, plus a search engine.  
+With that combination, building a dedicated, efficient archiver becomes much simpler.
+
+Using the experience gained from rustmailer, I designed and built **Bichon** in less than two weeks, followed by another two weeks of testing and optimization.  
+It has now reached a stable, usable state—and I decided to release it publicly.
+
+**Bichon is completely free**.  
+You can download and use it however you like.  
+It’s not perfect, but I hope it brings you value.
