Yes, more specifically, Claws Mail.... I seem to remember it having a
couple of annoyances. In Gnome I have the Toolbar option to show icons
only and since Sylpheed/Claws uses its own icon sets, it ignores that
setting and you have to go through every icon one at a time disabling
the icon text, which doesn't work for every icon either (Trash?)

There was something else equally annoying which I can't recall right
now.
