--- Comment #30 from Klaus Kusche <klaus.kusche at computerix.info> ---
May I suggest to use a master password as a fix (like thunderbird, firefox 
and some other programs do) to encrypt all passwords on disk, 
and to decrypt them when claws is started?!

Clear-text passwords on disk are a major problem!
(among other problems, this implies clear text passwords on backups -ugh!).
