            Bug ID: 4184
           Summary: Provide option for changing HTTP user agent sting.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: GIT
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: Plugins/RSSyl
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: removed-gdpr at example.com

Currently RSSyl sends "libfeed 0.1" as HTTP user agent. This is a quite
unpopular UA which makes user fingerprinting easier. It would be better to use
something more popular:

Ideally the user should be given a preference where he can enter (say) the 3 UA
strings and Claws can use them randomly for each separate HTTP connection.
