+
+Dit the reporter give the needed basic information about the Mageia release he uses and what steps to take to reproduce the bug?

+ADD:(examples of reports with and without needed info)
+
+
+step 2b (often not so easy, if you don't know how to do it: leave it to others and watch what they do)
+
+Check wether the reporter gave needed backtraces, if he didn't: ask for them and tell him how to get them if he doesn't know

+check the src.rpm:
+ :src claws-mail with sophie (on irc or sophie.zarb.org)
+or urpmq --sourcerpm claws-mail
