Frankly, I'd prefer you to stop using Claws Mail and posting on this
mailing list, I have the feeling this app is not for you and that I
can't stand you writing here the way you currently do. You're violating
several netiquette rules, are you suffering from any trouble or
disability that would explain why it sounds difficult to communicate
with you? Knowing this could help establishing a different way of
making things happen here.
