I think Canonical "fixed" this problem in Ubuntu by deciding to move to Thunderbird in 11.10.
That's fine by me, I moved to T-bird a while ago, after observing the Evolution developers' response to a number of bugs. They have a peculiar design philosophy which does not permit much flexibility, and it appears that adapting the program to multiple screen sizes falls beyond the boundaries set by this design philosophy. T-bird + Lightning works pretty well on small screens though, particularly with a couple of add-ons. So, my suggested work-around for this bug is to drop Evolution and migrate to Thunderbird. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/23810 Title: Evolution is unusable in 1024x768 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
