Tried it five times in a row, still crashes. I actually don't know how to debug it right, but i'll do anything to help.

I have the same thing signal 11 crash on start up 
all users and different mail accounts
even reverting to previous versions does not help

since upgrade it is unusable,

starting a new user and a new .claws-mail directory 
also hangs once the account is setup.

But sylpheed has no such problems.

Hope someone can help solve this.

Probably the same issue as here (which was fixed in cvs):
http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2414

If you want to make claws-mail work again I think you must downgrad xcb (or install the cvs version of claws-mail)

My claws-mail works again right after today's upgrade to version "claws-mail-3.7.9-3" Thanks!
