This was affirming.

On a new linux install, I set up a smallish (10 MB of emails, about 20
IMAP folders) identical IMAP account in Claws, Evolution, and
Thunderbird.

I launched each and checked their RAM usage in Xfce Task Manager.
Claws was at 37 MB, Evolution was at about 100 MB (not including
related resident files such as alarm-notifier that are always running),
and Thunderbird was at about 150 MB.

Impressive.
