There are some things that frequently come up when switching to Claws:
- * Why does the advanced filtering system not work?
-
- Claws uses the new filtering system as soon as you define a new rule for it.
- Your old Sylpheed filter rules will not be used. In subdirectory tools/ of
- the distribution there is a Perl script called filter_conv.pl which converts
- old filter rules to the claws filtering system.

+ * What happened to my filter rules?
+ Claws uses a new filtering system. Your old Sylpheed filter rules will not
+ be used. In subdirectory tools/ of the distribution there is a Perl script
+ called filter_conv.pl which converts old filter rules to the claws
+ filtering system, see tools/README for details.

* What happened to the compose email and compose news buttons?
There's a composite button for both composing mail and news. You can toggle
subject match "SPAM" delete_on_server
Next time, you retrieve the headers using selective download,
all messages that matched this criteria are marked.
-
+ NOTE: Selective download is a pop3 only feature and makes
+ no sense if used as a folder processing filter.
+
+* Custom toolbar
+----------------
+ Configuration->Custom toolbar lets you define the toolbar
+ you want. The configuration dialog enables you to set an icon,
+ an appropriate text and map an action to it. Actions to choose
+ from are predefined. You may as well have your "Sylpheed Actions"
+ (refer to "user definable actions" above) on your toolbar.
+ Example:
+ * Configuration->Actions
+ - add an entry "Dillo: dillo %p&"
+ * Configuration->Custom toolbar
+ - select Sylpheed Actions Feature
+ - select "Dillo: dillo %p&" from drop down list
+ - choose an icon and click ok
