I opened a ticket a while ago for backporting Claws Mail 3.11.1 because
of the gnutls feature, here it is:

https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/8305

Then the tickets about Alan found leaks can be found from

https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/8999

(there are several subtasks)


3.11.1 seems to be a nice release with already two reasons for
backporting to Wheezy, in case anybody is interested...


cheers
