However when I then launched Claws afterwards, the plugins are not in the plugin directory.  The default installation via their "AppCafe" only installed trayicon.so and I can't find the others.

In addition, when the first package was installed, it also installed Claws Mail from the ports collection, so the system now has two versions of Claws installed, 3.7.something from the ports and 3.8.something from PCBSD's AppCafe.  When I launched the version from the Ports install, the plugin directly also displayed that one plugin, not the others.  

Thanks in advance for any help.
