361152 - Attachments hide message when there are too many

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 223340

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Kevin Dibble]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

The message of the email cannot be seen when there are too many attachments.

The attachments area needs to be re-sizable to be able to view messages that have many attachments.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get someone to send you an email message with lots of attachments (100 images or separate files)
2. When viewing the message in the message plane, it disappears
3. Double clicking the message to open in its own window produces the same result. 

Actual Results:  
Message is not viewable as the attachments plane hides everything

Expected Results:  
Message is not viewable as the attachments plane hides everything

Installed ALL versions of Thunderbird and each gives the same result.

The attachments plane needs to be re-sizable and scrollable (or have the ability to hide) when viewing messages with multiple attachments
