It looks like for claws-mail it's not so straightforward because when you run claws-mail from the command line, it does not put an icon in the dock. It's not an Aqua application at all, in fact; it's an X11 application. So creating a double-clickable icon for it is not as simple as it was for bzflag (that I know of).

For X11 apps though you can put a shortcut into the Applications menu inside the X11 application. Once you open X11.app, choose Customize from the Applications menu in the menu bar to add additional programs, like claws-mail, to that menu.
