[sylpheed:36415] Re: [ANNOUNCE] Sylpheed 3.5 released

[Gene Goldenfeld]

I copied over the contents of the zip file and the same thing occurred
as did with all the other 3.5. rc versions: the program hung on the
first connection, and clicking in it turned the window black. Not even
copying back all the previous files fixed it; it took a system restore
(Win 8 Pro x64). Don't know if the problem is something about 3.5.0 or
my computer, but there sure is something wrong.
