Hello,

Sylpheed-claws is a great client.
Just be aware that it is on the edge compared to sylpheed vanilla.
So, before you start playing around with plug-ins, it may pay to turn off spell-check (experimental) in your settings, as I have
experienced problems with it.
Just to eliminate confusion with any problems you may experience with the plug-ins.
Regards,

David.
