Prefetching messages can be somehow emulated by adding Pre-processing rule
(Configuration->Pre-processing... menu), which will do some dummy analysis of
message body and execute no action.

e.g. Pre-processing rule:
Name: prefetch
Condition: body_part matchcase "" & unread
Action: stop

This should make claws to fetch every unread message upon checking new mail.

p.s. don't forget to restart claws-mail after adding new rule.
