Yes it does.  Unmaximize the window and stretch the window wider.

Comment 2 Heiko Adams 2011-04-25 18:38:55 UTC
I would expect that this works even with a maximized window

Comment 3 Matthew Saltzman 2011-07-08 02:21:18 UTC
I think this is the same bug: I run evolution maximized, and the folder sidebar always starts wide enough to hold four switcher icons in a single row.  I widen it to hold five switcher icons in a row, but the next time I start evo, the folder sidebar is only wide enough for four,

evolution-3.0.2-3.fc15.x86_64

This seems to be a regression from Fedora 14.

Comment 4 Matthew Barnes 2011-07-08 02:40:11 UTC
It really isn't.  Just widen your unmaximized window.

Comment 5 Matthew Saltzman 2011-07-08 03:16:03 UTC
OK That worked.  How would I know to do that?

Also, unmaximizing narrows the window with the message headers to the point they are invisible.  Expanding that window and maximizing again narrows the message preview window.

The issue got fixed recently in an upstream bug [1].
