Hi John,

Man, I see you EVERYWHERE!

I think this is an issue with whatever printer you selected when you
printed. On my Claws 3.7.8 on Ubuntu 11.04, saying File->Print takes
you to the print dialog box where you select which printer you want to
do the job. If there's something defaulting to A4, I imagine it's
there. Also, there's a Page Setup tab on that dialog box, so you can
probably override whatever the printer driver wants until you fix the
printer driver itself.
