User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.11) Gecko/20070327 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.11 Build Identifier: version 1.5.0.10 (20070306) Opening a received email with hundreds of attachments resizes the mail display frame. Some of the attachments remain invisible, as the displaying area for the filenames is cropped by the mail frame. A Scrollbar for the attachments would be useful, so that the displaying area for the filenames can content itself with the available space so that mail frame doesn't need to resize itself and all attachments can be viewed by scrolling. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a shell and do mkdir testfiles cd testfiles create hundreds of files in it. 2. Create a new mail and attach all files of the directory testfiles and send it to yourself. 3. Receive the mail and display it by clicking on it in the message list frame. Actual Results: The frame displaying emails resizes itself, showing a large attachment-area. The area gets cropped by the mail frame, thus not all attachments are visible. A scrollbar is missing. Expected Results: The mail frame should keep the size and the attachment area should be displayed with a scrollbar. By scrolling through the attachments you can view, select and download each attached file.
Fixed in 2.0.
