Sure Christian, appreciated you care.

Anyway, at the risk of repeating myself, this is still a hint, so the bug title is wrong, there's no warning here.

And as a hint it is, I think can be safely ignored, specially when this is caused by current specification, which requires you to unconditionally add two categories (Office;Network) when Email category is present, otherwise an error is shown by

Additionally, it doesn't reproduce on my system:

mones@busgosu:~$ desktop-file-validate /usr/share/applications/claws-mail.desktop
mones@busgosu:~$
