Can't scroll or resize long To or CC list in compose window

#1909

The title pretty much says it all. If I'm replying to a message with a long list of either To: or CC: recipients, I can't see all of them in the fixed size panes of the compose window, nor does there seem to be any way of scrolling those panes.

    You can only scroll by using the arrow keys to move the caret.

    It's unfortunately non-trivial to fix for technical reasons (and therefore not high on my list).

    You can increase the maximum number of lines in the field like this:

    defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmComposerMaximumNumberOfRecipientLines -integer 10

    Both the arrow keys and the hidden preference work for me, thanks.

    Feel free to close this ticket if you don't think it's a feasible item to fix.

    Ok, I'll move it to “bluesky” state since I'm unlikely to provide a better solution in the foreseeable future.
