This is what I've done round about end of Feb.- which works fine (100%) for me
(and not included here) logs all the times one or the other files are
present/missing - hadn't though of redirecting stdout and stderr - will do so,
just out of curiosity.

... but also after reading Paul's

I have progressively taken to clicking "Quit Claws-Mail" before shutting
computer down, so bash-script is only really there as a failsafe.

=======
#!/bin/bash
if [ -f ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc.tmp ] && [ ! -f ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc ]
then mv ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc.tmp ~/.claws-mail/clawsrc 
fi

`/usr/bin/claws-mail &`
