I would confidently go further than that and say that
Claws-Mail/Sylpheed-Claws was NEVER less stable than Sylpheed. As
far as I saw it, it was badged as 'bleeding-edge' in deference to
Sylpheed, as the project's original aim, before the fork, was to
improve Sylpheed and not to rival Sylpheed.

Therefore, James, I refute your view that Sylpheed is a more stable
product. I don't know what you read, but it was probably old, old
history and written back in the time before the fork when Claws was
the development version of Sylpheed.

with regards

Paul
