mail-client/claws-mail should be ported to Python 3. Support for Python is optional in this package, so if porting is not done, support for Python can be unconditionally dropped. Porting would also involve porting from dev-python/pygobject:2 + dev-python/pygtk:2 to dev-python/pygobject:3.

Support for Python 3 now exists in "gtk3" branch: https://git.claws-mail.org/?p=claws.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/gtk3

Please revert this. I am on holidays since August 15th (there's even a devaway) and cannot take care of this before September.
Should be fixed with >=mail-client/claws-mail-3.18.0
