While -current faces some problems soon to be fixed with the kerberos
update, it's not meant to be broken.  And while a dmesg is perhaps less
useful on ports@ than on other lists, it's nicer to have too much
information than not enough.

What other information could have he produced?  Not much, I think,
except perhaps the exact claws-mail package version.  Anyway, this kind
of problem is known and the developers are fixing it (updated packages
may already be available on your nearby ftp mirror).

The OpenBSD developers aren't the claws-mail authors, do you think this
packaging problem should have been reported upstream?  I don't think so.

Chill out,
