There is no Hotline for desperate wannabe-DDs. Read the documentation as
everybody else and ask concrete questions when they arise.

It seems, there is something misconfigured in my Sylpheed-Claws. I will
try to fix this as soon as possible.

I don't know what you're talking about. This is e-mail. References:
Headers are a useful thing.  Please don't break them on purpose by
introducing conventions originating in web forums.

As to your beginner-level packaging questions, I'd like to kindly
point you to debian-mentors.
