Get the latest claws version from CVS
(:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/sylpheed-claws, -r gtk2) and
run

./autogen.sh
./autogen.sh --build-w32
make

The second line is a wrapper around configure with a couple of
required options.  confuigure will probably complain about missing
libraries; you need to install them too.  Make sure to install them
into the prefix ~/w32root or to wherever a $w32roo points to.  The
autogen.sh --build-w32 shortcut also works with libgpg-error, gpgme,
gnupg.

You need the mingw32 cross compiler; I am using the one from Debian
Sid (packages: mingw32 mingw32-runtime mingw32-binutils).

If you want to work on something, IMAP support is heavily desired.
Thus you need to build a version of libetpan - I have not tried this
yet.


Salam-Shalom,
