Comment 396 for bug 1084

"Verified fixed"... - yes, and thanks a lot for that, but...
It looks as if we've jumped out of the frying pan into the fire!

Posted follow-up Bug 511408: Header pane should auto-resize and/or at least be resizable for large content (can't view many to-recipients when expanded, view all headers etc.)

Now we've got a scroll bar, but the header pane doesn't resize an inch any more (as it used to) when we expand long headers (e.g. lots of TO- or CC-recipients), or even view all headers. What is worse, we can't even resize it manually. So the maximum that we get to see at one glance in a "normal" header is 2 lines of addresses, which equivalents to 6 unknown email addresses that can be viewed at a time without scrolling. Which is a nuisance, because when I expand headers or even "view all headers", what I really want is to see more of them... I reckon that's a pretty regular scenario, any birthday invitation and surely lots of business emails can easily have more than 6 recipients, maybe 10, 20, 30? Even worse for "view all headers", all you can see at one glance is a couple of lines out of your total headers which can easily fill half a page or more. Very sad. Way too much inconvenience for the very basics of handling email - still.
