It may not be the right way, or the best way, but *I think* it works! First, get the Network Proxy package running in your panel. Open it up and put in the line for the HTTP proxy put 127.0.0.1:[Port Of Your Proxy] with the same for the Secure HTTP proxy line. This is in System-> Preferences -> Network Proxy On the line for the Socks host, put 127.0.0.1:9150 if you use the Tor Bundle. Finally, remove 127.0.0.1 and localhost from the list of Ignored Hosts or the whole thing won't work. Now, when running the Tor Bundle, its best to start it running before you fire up Claws-Mail it seems to me (though I'm willing to be corrected). However Claws is a plain text package and you only need to connect in HTML if you use one of the HTML plugins, or use the External Programs option in Claws in Configuration->Preferences->Message View -> External Programs. There I found an entry for Firefox. As a presumption, I took it that the Tor Browser Bundle would be automatically fired up instead of Firefox if I left it, but if you find that it doesn't, you may have to try something along the lines of the Midori Private Browsing package, or Tails, or Liberte Linux, but it seems to work OK for me. Having said all this, if I've made a real howler of the process, I hope somebody will correct me. Of course, if you put a decent HOSTS file in /etc/hosts to start with, it'll make your endeavours easier.
