Apparently, not much. I just installed the RPM in question from orderinchaos.

1) why it installs in /usr/local is anyone's guess. I don't think Sylpheed & 
Sylpheed-Claws can coexist, and maybe that's why it's put there instead.

2) uses the existing stuff in .sylpheed, so no need to fiddle with such things as 
creating a new account and a place to store the mail, etc.

3) The fonts are *tiny*. But that's configurable.

4) Deleting a mail takes a *very* long time in claws compared to vanilla sylpheed. My 
mailbox has about ~6k messages.
 
5) claws thinks all my mail is "new". 

6) wrapping lines does not work. Consequently, this post may look wierd to you.

7) a lot more noise on the controlling terminal than in vanilla sylpheed. I'm getting 
a ton of assertion failed messages here.
