No need to apologize, comments are always welcome. And I'm currently not sure 
how we should do this. There is afaik no precedence for a component of gpg4win 
to be removed.

Yes I would have done something like:

Message Box: (To be shown for users that have claws mail installed through the 
gpg4win installer)
Title: Claws Mail now available as a standalone installer.
Message: Gpg4win no longer includes Claws mail. If you want to continue to use 
claws please obtain an up to date version from <claws_download_page>.

The deprecated, bundled Version of Claws mail will now be uninstalled.
                                                                 OK | Cancel

If canceled the installer would not move to the next page and the new Version 
gpg4win version could not be installed.

Or should We allow installing the new Gpg4win version without uninstalling 
claws (And show that messagebox again the next time an update is installed)

Regards,
Andre
