Thanks Dustin, very interesting. I'm using Claws 4.0 now, and from 

dpkg -l libgtk* | grep -e '^i' | grep -e 'libgtk-*[0-9]'

ii  libgtk-3-0:amd64  3.24.33-1ubuntu2 amd64        GTK graphical user
interface library ii  libgtk-3-bin      3.24.33-1ubuntu2 amd64
programs for the GTK graphical user interface library ii
libgtk-3-common   3.24.33-1ubuntu2 all          common files for the
GTK graphical user interface library ii  libgtk2.0-0:amd64
2.24.33-2ubuntu2 amd64        GTK graphical user interface library -
old version ii  libgtk2.0-common  2.24.33-2ubuntu2 all          common
files for the GTK graphical user interface library ii  libgtk3-perl
 0.038-1          all          Perl bindings for the GTK+ graphical
user interface library

it seems GTK 3. I was using 'impish' before, and from
https://packages.ubuntu.com/impish/claws-mail , shows GTK2 , so
definitely a switch from the GTK2 to GTK3 , as you have mentioned.

Thanks.
