I've just tested it with my Windows XP box and it works flawlessly (under
System Properties->Advanced->Environment variables+User variables), thanks
for this suggestion, I'll surely add it to the Sylpheed FAQ.

However, it'd great if anyone could test this environment variable
addition/change under other officially supported non-Unix systems like
Windows Vista & Seven.

Thanks again,
