If tsocks really is good enough, here is a quick and dirty hack, hastly
tested in the wild, no time for a proper patch:
1. Create `/usr/bin/torified-claws-mail` (perm 755) with:
#!/bin/sh
TSOCKS_CONF_FILE=/etc/tor/tor-tsocks.conf tsocks.distrib claws-mail
2. Update .desktop (applications and shortcut icon) to use
`torified-claws-mail`.
I have only gone so far to look upon /proc/$PID/maps to see that
libtsocks was indeed loaded. I don't know if that fixes the regression
or introduce others.
This is not the nicest, but we have in mind to ditch Claws soon enough.
