I found a couple of bugs in claws that I didn't have time to properly
debug (not at all game stoppers, parsing bug on search when another
search works, email parse crash) so I decided as sylpheed didn't show
the bug then I might try it out again and see; I originally switched to
claws because I couldn't get gpg to work with sylpheed properly. I
couldn't though because sylpheed wouldn't read my resolv.conf which has
ipv4 only options and a tcp only option currently disabled, sylpheed
seems to use it's own dns resolver which it failed to parse, bad design?

p.s. Why are you using fedora from RedHat that couldn't design a piece
of paper without adding a plastic covering that is bad for the
environment and means pens can be rubbed off, but pencils don't work!
