Hello,
I don’t know where to ask, so I’m doing it here in the forums.
I’m ditching kmail. I’ve had enough with bugs. Upgrading to OpenSuse 12.3 was a good enough reason to finally do it. So I’m now trying Claws Mail which at first sight looks nice and does what I want from an email client.
I installed claws-mail-3.9.2-2.4.1.x86_64, but only the 3.9.0-2.1.1 version of claws-mail-extra-plugins is available and requires claws-mail 3.9.0-2.1.2.x86_64.
Who should I contact to add the newest version of the plugins package?
Thanks.
Carl

Hi
The plugins are deprecated and built into claws-mail now…
Configuration->plugins->load

You can file a bug report at the bugzilla.
First check whether you already have the plugins.
On 13.1, there is no separate plugins package. They are all included with the main claws-mail package (currently at version 3.9.2-3.1.4). Perhaps that change already occurred with 12.3, so check whether you already have the particular plugins that you are seeking.
Thanks to both of you. They are included in the main package. Now I feel silly :\

Ich check only “notification_plugin.so” and this plugin is neither
integrated in the claws-mail package of 12.3 or 13.1. Could it be that
you mean that the claws-mail-extra-plugins package is deprecated?
I opened claws-mail.
configuration –> plugins
This showed a list of 4 plugins - three for PGP and one for S/Mime.
I clicked the “Load …” button. That showed many more. I selected “notification”. That seemed to load without a problem. I did not need to install and plugins package. It was already there. This is with 13.1.

Hi
Correct the plugin package 
I use the notification plugin in 3.9.2
and it’s there? If I press load, it opens the directory with all the
other plugins (*.so files) that can be added?
They were dropped in 3.9.1
Check the dates in May…
I would grab the 3.9.3 version anyway as it has bug fixes…
