So, I want to try to remove and then re-install claws-mail so that it
picks up the aspell dictionary.  I tried:

sudo port deactivate claws-mail
sudo port uninstall claws-mail

I then re-installed claws-mail but all of my previous account settings
were still there and the drop-down for dictionaries was still blank.

So how do I do this 'correctly'?
