How many email accounts can i have with claws mail

Claws Mail is a popular open-source email client that allows you to manage multiple email accounts. The number of email accounts you can have with Claws Mail depends on the version you're using and the operating system you're running it on.

Claws Mail 3.17.10 (latest version)

On Linux, Claws Mail 3.17.10 allows you to create up to 100 email accounts. This is a hard-coded limit, so you can't exceed this number.

On Windows, Claws Mail 3.17.10 has a limit of 20 email accounts.

Earlier versions of Claws Mail

In earlier versions of Claws Mail, the limit was 10 email accounts on Linux and 5 email accounts on Windows.

Workaround

If you need to manage more than the allowed number of email accounts, you can use the following workaround:

  1. Create a new Claws Mail profile for each additional email account. To do this, go to "Settings" > "Configuration" > "Profiles" and click on "New Profile".
  2. Configure each profile with the settings for the corresponding email account.
  3. You can then switch between profiles using the "Profile" menu or by clicking on the profile icon in the top-right corner of the Claws Mail window.

Keep in mind that this workaround may not be the most efficient way to manage multiple email accounts, as you'll need to switch between profiles manually. However, it does allow you to exceed the default limit of email accounts.
