thunderbird is garbage anyway. i say that while responding to this email 
using thunderbird. claws is better. i used sylpheed back in the day, 
then switched to thunderbird because i was unaware that claws existed 
(fork of sylpheed).

i'll switch to claws when i can be bothered. yeah, i just thought i'd 
ask. i don't want to maintain thunderbird in openbsd. let someone else 
add a newer version if they want to
