Hi Tom,

Thanks! Originally, sylpheed-claws was a sort of enhancement to sylpheed, but claws-mail is supposed to be a different product. (For instance, there are differences in how each handle MH folders.  Each have their own different ways.) Regardless, it is very difficult to incorporate other sending programs with claws-mail or sylpheed, and there is no documentation on how to do that and no one ever responded to my post enquiring details on both mailing lists (well, one person responded on claws-mail saying that he saw my similar post on the sylpheed ML). This creates an issue when you have to incorporate things like non-google OAUTH2 (MS O365) authentication in the sending and retrieving e-mail. So, I decided to move to mutt (originally, neomutt) which appears to have a larger community of users and also has chances of having greater staying power in the long term.

But I am now thinking that I will use mutt with MH folders for now. If the famed race issues do not crop up for me, then we are good. And then if they crop up and I need to shift shop, I will not be dealing with learning mutt and Maildir folders at the same time.
