Claws Mail is a free and open-source, C/GTK-based e-mail client, which is both lightweight and highly configurable.[1][2] Claws Mail runs on both Windows[3] and Unix-like systems such as Linux, BSD, and Solaris. It stores mail in the MH mailbox format. Plugins allow to read HTML mail, but there is none to compose HTML messages.[4]

Claws Mail is also a news client and RSS aggregator. Further features – integrated or supplied via plugins – include:[5][6]

  • Search and filtering, optionally via Perl and Python scripting
  • Security (GPG, SSL, anti-phishing)
  • Anti-spam (SpamAssassin, Bogofilter)
  • Per-folder preferences
  • Optional external editor
  • Templates for messages
  • Themes support, customisable toolbars, X-Face support, foldable quotes
  • Viewers for HTML mail (Dillo, Gtkhtml2, Fancy (WebKit), LiteHTML)
  • TNEF attachment parser
  • PDF viewer
  • Various notification plugins, e. g. trayicon and LED handler
  • Archiving, import/export from standard formats[7]
  • Support for Mbox mailbox format
  • Calendaring with events as kind of messages[8]

History

Development started in April 2001 as Sylpheed-Claws off the development version of Sylpheed, where new features could be tested and debugged. In August 2005 Claws Mail forked completely from Sylpheed.
