  Inflating bug severity don't gets it solved faster. (Yes, I saw you
already downgraded it to grave, but that is still inflated).

  Please read what severity means to Debian BTS:
  http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer.en.html#severities

  It's not a measure of how important the bug is for you, it has a
quite different and precise meaning.

  Sorry, not reproducible here. Can you provide more details about
your config: type of accounts you're reading and composing, library
versions (you should have used bugreport for this), any other detail
about the system that make it different (custom kernel, custom
libraries you may have).

  Don't mess your feelings about the bug with the BTS severity levels.
  Try to isolate what makes your environment different instead.

  This is not the first time you report a bug and say you're not
willing to help solving it. I don't figure out why do you think that
attitude will encourage me to spend my free time in solving it for you.

  Certanly the cause was not found but the reason for closing is clearly
stated as well as the actions you could have taken.

  This is only valid if bug gets exposed in test environment too.
  Can you create a clean chroot in your problematic box and try inside?

  We don't hide problems by removing packages. Furthermore I have the
sensation that the rest of Sylpheed-Claws users in testing won't agree
with your suggestion :-P
