Thanks for the tip (I didn't know you could set up an external editor
for Claws), although...ummm...how to put this without reigniting the
age-old editor wars...Let's just say I'm not really much of a vi kinda
guy ;)

I guess I could find a different external editor, but it would be
nice to have a more "proper" (well, "traditional" or "mainstream" I
guess) email editing window, with the to/cc/bcc lines, subject line,
attachments, address book, etc.
