Quoting from README:

1. Using GNOME 2.8 or later
   Run gconf-editor from 'Applications - System Tools - Configuration Editor'.
   Select 'desktop - gnome - interface' and check 'can-change-accels' in it.

2. Using GNOME before 2.8, or other environments
   Add gtk-can-change-accels = 1 to the file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (or create a new
   one, if it doesn't exist).

3. When Sylpheed is not running, directly edit ~/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc with
   an editor.
