Bug Description

Hi there,

I'm using Elementary OS Loki that I really enjoy.

Since i've moved from Freya to Loki (I did a clean install from scratch) I'm having a weird bug.

When I launch Mail, its window is slowly expanding to the right, on and on.
If i try to go fullscreen nothing happen (clicking don't do anything).

I've found a workaround :
if i manage to select the line separating the mails list and the mail preview windows and then move it to shrink or expand, the window expanse stops.

At this time I can click to go fullscreen and use Mail as it should work.

Looking around the net if found some people having the exact same issue and they are all using Lenovo laptop with Intel Graphics (as I do).

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for taking the time to report this.
You ran into an issue that was reported in an ealier bug report. So I am marking this bug report as a duplicate of the former bug report.
As a workaround you could try to reset the gesettings for Mail:
1) close Mail
2) $ dconf reset -f /org/pantheon/mail/
