as long as not the whole Claws Mail code is rewritten and still consists of
Sylpheed code, the connection remains in my opinion. These portions of code
have been maintained in Sylpheed but remain as-is (sometimes meaning unfixed)
in Claws Mail.

I already reported, that one bug in Claws Mail (rendering it unusable for me)
doesn't present in Sylpheed:
http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2173. Due to
missing response, I haven't reported another one (with the same severity for
me).

Thanks for suggestion. There are many things to fix, that Claws Mail developers
are not interested in, that's why I'm doing it myself (and for now in
Sylpheed). But maintaining the Claws Mail code portions shared with Sylpheed, I
believe, should be their responsibility, since they decided to fork.

I'd be glad to contribute to Claws Mail too, once/if here would be more
maintaining responsibility feeling, responsiveness (and support due to larger
code base and libetpan integration).
