            Bug ID: 4322
           Summary: Password protect UI with master password or other
                    password
           Product: Claws Mail

          Priority: P3
         Component: UI

I think it would be a nice feature to password protect the GUI. Maybe have an
option so the UI locks after a set time. Now, even if you use a master
password, people that can physically access the computer are able to cancel the
password-dialog and read even encrypted e-mails. I know we can do this globally
with screen-locks and power managment, but I also think many  have need to do
this only on the email-program.

Thank you for a great application!
