Package: sylpheed-claws-gtk2
Version: 2.6.0-1

I'm a first time user of Sylpheed-Claws, so when I first started it,
it presented me with the setup wizard.  I have to use ssh tunnelling
to get to my mail servers, so they don't appear to be on standard
ports.  There is no way to properly enter this information in the
wizard, but i tried entering localhost:1993.  (I'm using port 1993 to
forward to port 993 on the real server)

After going through the wizard, and hitting 'Save' to continue,
Sylpheed-Claws started up, and I was presented with a window saying
it was unable to connect to localhost:1993:993, and that I would need
to reconfigure the plugin. At that point, Sylpheed-Claws closed,
presumably because there were no available mailboxes.  When I started
Sylpheed-Claws again, the setup wizard presented itself again, and I
elected to setup a local mailbox, so that I could configure my real
mailbox from the primary setup dialogs that I assumed, correctly,
would let me set the ports.

It would be useful if the wizard offered port settings, or determined
them from the hostname if present, and if Sylpheed-Claws would stay
open even if it does not have a mailbox.

Let me know if you need more information, exact error text, or for me
to try on another version.

Thanks
