Maildir++ support plugin for Sylpheed-Claws GTK2 mailer

## NAME

sylpheed-claws-gtk2-maildir-plugin — Maildir++ support plugin for Sylpheed-Claws GTK2 mailer

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the  **sylpheed-claws-gtk2-maildir-plugin**

This manual page was written for the **Debian** distribution  because the original program does not have a manual page.

**sylpheed-claws-gtk2-maildir-plugin** is a plugin (loadable module) for   Sylpheed-Claws GTK2 mailer.

This plugin allows access to Maildir++ folders like those used  by popular IMAP servers like Dovecot, BincIMAP or Courier.

The access is made directly, without needing to set up an IMAP  connection to localhost, therefore without all protocol overhead.

## USAGE

Before using a plugin you must instruct Sylpheed-Claws to load  it on startup.

For this you must go \`\`*Configuration*'' menu  on main window toolbar, open \`\`*Plugins...*'' dialog, click on  the \`\`*Load plugin...*'' button and select the plugin file,  named **maildir.so**, and press the \`\`*Open*''     button.
