More plugins
+ Other plugins have been written too, which are available as separate downloads. At the time of this writing, there are a number of plugins available at http://claws.sylpheed.org/plugins.php:

+
+ AttRemover

+
+ mailMBOX

+ SynCE
+ Assists in keeping the addressbook of a Windows CE device (Pocket PC/ iPAQ, Smartphone etc) in sync with Claws' addressbook, with respect to email addresses.
+
+ vCalendar
+ Enables vCalendar message handling like that produced by Evolution or Outlook, and Webcal subscriptions.
+
+ RSSyl
+ Allows you to read your favorite newsfeeds in Claws. RSS 1.0, 2.0 and Atom feeds are currently supported.
+
+
+
+ If you're a developer, writing a plugin to extend Sylpheed-Claws' capabilities is probably the best and easiest solution. We will provide hosting to your code, and will be glad to answer your questions in the mailing-list or the IRC channel, #sylpheed on IRCnet.
