You should contact Yahoo, your provider, for a potential solution to your
problem in posting to the list.

But the fact you can't post to the list, for whatever reason, does not make
this bug tracker a forum or somewhere for you to chat. And you know this, as
it's been pointed out to your before.

You read the message thread on the development list, you could see that we have
dealt with the problem, you could see that a new release is imminent, yet you
still opened this ticket and gave it the summary, "Please fix POODLE
vulnerability in Claws Mail". You're asking for something to be fixed that you
know is already fixed.

I wondered if your reports aren't tailored to cause that, i.e. you're trolling.

Then set the prefs, as also stated.

And, please, no more chit-chat on the bug tracker.
