[Users] Claws Mail 4.3.0. / 3.21.0 Unleashed!!!

Thu Jun 13 16:19:59 UTC 2024

Hi!

Some time ago I installed an old version from Debian buster repository
(3.17.8). Now it makes me wonder whether it would be possible to compile a
new version that would install over the old one (and preserve existing
data etc.) Any possibility for that? I understood that 3.x.x will not be
updated anymore.
