Shipping an AppData XML for Claws Mail enables the ability to install it from
an AppStream frontend like GNOME Software with detailed information (license,
screenshot, long descriptions, ratings) for the package.

And here is an AppData XML I've created.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<component type="desktop">
  <id>claws-mail.desktop</id>
  <metadata_license>CC0-1.0</metadata_license>

  <summary>A GTK+ based email client</summary>

  <description>
    <p>Claws Mail is an email client (and news reader), based on GTK+,
featuring:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>Quick response</li>
      <li>Graceful, and sophisticated interface</li>
      <li>Easy configuration, intuitive operation</li>
      <li>Abundant features</li>
      <li>Extensibility</li>
      <li>Robustness and stability</li>
    </ul>
    <p>The appearance and interface are designed to be familiar to new users
coming from other popular email clients, as well as experienced users. Almost
all commands are accessible with the keyboard.</p>
    <p>The messages are managed in the standard MH format, which features fast
access and data security. You'll be able to import your emails from almost any
other email client, and export them just as easily.</p>
    <p>Lots of extra functionality, like an RSS aggregator, calendar, or laptop
LED handling, are provided by extra plugins.</p>

And it should normally be installed to ${dataroot}/appdata/ as
claws-mail.appdata.xml.
