320550 - Addressee list in middle pane gets shortened without cause

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 335973

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Nikolaus Wagner]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7

I ridiculed myself by sending an important email twice because there were some adressees missing in the middle pane  - there is space for twice the whole list but only the first two adresses are displayed - I only expect a "+" (which changes the display to display whole list) when space is short, which is not the case.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set display resolution to sensible values (eg 1280x1024)
2.Send mail to 5 persons (use Full name! eg "Anton Kant")
2.Look at "Sent" Folder, middle of the screen, the panel between Maillist and Mailtext



Actual Results:  
Middle panel contains following lines:
Subject line, From line, Date line, Adressee line which reads:
"+"-Sign, Three Adressees, empty space which could contain 10 additional Adressees

Expected Results:  
Middle panel contains following lines:
Subject line, From line, Date line, Adressee line which reads:
"-"-Sign, ALL Adressees, there IS enough space for all of them



If there really isn't enough space to display all the Adressees in the middle pane there should be something like "..." add the end of the list, so I notice that there is a "+" add the beginning of the line and not all Adressees are displayed

The dupe I wanted for this is bug 270511; however, another bug was opened for this: the fix will be in TB 2.0 -- in fact, it should be in the 2-alpha build.
