Bug ID: 4184
Summary: Provide option for changing HTTP user agent sting.
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Claws Mail
Version: GIT
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: Plugins/RSSyl
Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
Reporter: removed-gdpr at example.com
Currently RSSyl sends "libfeed 0.1" as HTTP user agent. This is a quite
unpopular UA which makes user fingerprinting easier. It would be better to use
something more popular:

Ideally the user should be given a preference where he can enter (say) the 3 UA
strings and Claws can use them randomly for each separate HTTP connection.
