Also claws might get a signal from (for example) network-manager if there is a connection available to toggle its offline/online mode to avoid unnecessary tries to connect to the mailserver while offline. Or to change to polling rate if the device is on battery to conserve power. There are many reasons why a software might want to communicate things to other running applications and the standard way of doing so has become Dbus. Grüße, Sven. -- Sigmentation fault.
