Have you sent backtraces to the port maintainer and/or upstream ? I
don't remember any PRs about s.-c. lately.

What exactly means 'vertical dimension' ?

Strange that I don't see any of the problem you mention; I'm using
sylpheed-claws for about 29 configured email accounts, 2 of which are
IMAP one being my FreeBSD list subscription with 153 folders.
sylpheed-claws --status-full:
new: 240 unread: 290335 total: 950215
The only problem I have is that a Draft message written in s.-c. when
accessed in sqirrel webmail doesn't have the To: and Subject: lines and
vice-versa.
An other thing which I would like would be to fetch only attachments
names and sizes when one opens a email and fetch the attachment only
when you open it (I saw this in Eudora and like it very much).
