I am interested in this kind of feature to Claws Mail. I have not tried
these 2, yet.

This is not just with Ubuntu. My chosen distribution is Debian, and
Claws version is also a bit behind, compared with the available in website.

Yes. I found the same information.

Yes. The most you will need to do is to install some development
packages that are needed to compile the source. Else, compiling it is
fairly simple. I learned it in the last weeks.

I already commented above. Same situation for Debian.

Other people in this list, probably have much more experience in
distributions to say what should make this happen.
