FAQ to be submitted (Request for comments):

2.21 Q21 How can I get a good printout of a message?

You can customise the command used by Sylpheed to print a message in the
Configuration -> Common Preferences -> Others.

1. Default Solution (a.k.a. poor man's solution):

The default behaviour is to use the basic Unix "lpr" command. It is available on
nearly any system and if the administrator setup the printing spool correctly it
will give acceptable results.

2. Use Claws' supplied tool sylprint
Command: sylprint %s
Where to fetch: URL (why not create a tools package? or let's make Hiro include
it)

3. Use GNU Enscript:
Command: enscript -jG -Eemail %s (submitted by Gil Andr
