156413 - adapt newsgroup name length with window breadth

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 23633

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Ralf Hauser]

Build 2002070708

The newsgroup names are very cryptic (e.g. "c.s.d.announce") when clicking on
the plus in front of the news account. This makes sense if the window is small.
However, it is annoying, if it cannot be found out what the real name of a
subscribed newsgroup is even when enlarging the window. Only clicking on it and
reading an article finally reveals the full group name.

See also bug 32157, which, although not a DUP at all, would help in this situation.
