As I'd like to discontinue with packaging the Sylpheed E-Mail Client
for Fedora, I've dropped ownership, so somebody else may take over.

I use it and I need it for my LXDE Spin, so I'm going to co-maintain it
together with Itamar.

It doesn't exist publicly yet. There is a kickstart file at
http://cwickert.fedorapeople.org/lxde/fedora-livecd-lxde.ks
More details at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/LXDE
you can use livecd-creator and the kickstart file to generate one yourself.

Just out of interest - is there much reason to prefer Sylpheed over
Claws any more? Is it lighter on resources, for e.g.? Just curious,
really.

I switched to Claws because I wanted Xft2, and went back to Sylpheed
just as soon as the mainline acquired Xft2. It crashes too much.
If I wanted another bloated MUA with unchecked hunger for features,
I would be using Evo.

Claws? Crashes? Not for me it doesn't. And I'm feeding it several
100000 mails via IMAP.

Claws Mail's main pkg requires a few more libraries, most notably:
libcurl
libdb-4.7
libdbus-1, libdbus-glib-1
libetpan
libexpat
libgcrypt
libgpg-error
libpisock (Sylpheed could be built with basic pilot-link features, too)
libsasl2
libstartup-notification
GnuTLS instead of OpenSSL

Somebody has been stubborn enough to convince me of switching from
Sylpheed to Claws Mail for an extended evaluation period. So far I like
it. I've been told it used to be quite unstable indeed when it was still
called Sylpheed-claws, and as I remember, it has changed *a lot* since
it had started as a fork and development version of Sylpheed. I hope
all crashes you have run into have been reported in bugzilla. Sylpheed
has not been crash-free and problem-free either.

Sylpheed is much more Gnome-like (not sure it claims HIG
consistency), whereas Claws tends to be much more "we don't care
about looks, just throw menu, icon, whatever, anywhere we want."
IMHO, of course.
