Claws is an active project. 

I became roundcube free when I set up my own mail server.  

I simply use an email client rather than a browser. Browsers can leak.

Practically what this means is that in 2016, Thunderbird will finally be able 
to accept donations from users directed toward the update and maintenance of 
Thunderbird. In the long run, Thunderbird needs to rely on our users for 
support, and not expect to be subsidized by revenue from Firefox. We welcome 
this help from the Mozilla Foundation in moving toward our goal of developing 
independent sources of income for Thunderbird.

In the technical part of that post, Mitchell reiterated that Mozilla needs to 
be laser-focused on Firefox, and that the burden this places on Thunderbird (as 
well as the burden that Thunderbird places on Firefox) is leading to 
unacceptable outcomes for both projects. The most immediate need is for the 
Thunderbird release infrastructure to be independent of that used by Firefox, 
and Mozilla has offered to help. In the long-term, there will be additional 
technical separation between Firefox and Thunderbird as a continuation of a 
process that has been ongoing for the last three years.

unpatched is allways good, problems come when non default and mostly 
custom plugins is not tested, keep plain roundcube should not be a 
problem more then a claws client that is not patched
