This problem started 2-4 months ago IIRC. I've been running CM since at
least 2002 (Sylpheed version 0.6.6claws (GTK+ 1.2.10; i686-pc-linux-gnu))
and 2 instances all along.  This issue is relatively recent -- been very
busy since mid-June so haven't had time to debug/report it.  Hurricane
Florence is giving me time to work on this and other issues...  :)

This instance of CM reports:
  (cm:1204): libnotify-WARNING **: Failed to connect to proxy
quite often; but I can't be specific because my timestamp enhancement
request is still outstanding (bug 3353).

Aside: My primary instance of CM randomly reports:
  ** (cm:28672): WARNING **: addressbook folder not configured
but the address books are fine...

Besides, Notification plugin works just fine otherwise -- displaying
proper status at all times for both instances.
