I agree, it is a very useful function and I don't think anyone would
mind having it back. Only that 'minimise' is not quite what we mean
here - clicking the tray icon should make the main window disappear
(from the screen and also from the taskbar) - that's what aKregator,
among others, does. Simply clicking _ does not accomplish it, and
clicking X closes the program (and there's no option to let Sylpheed
stay in the system tray after its window is closed - not that it would
be a good idea anyway, but I just want to say that currently there is
no way of keeping Sylpheed running in the tray).
