Description of problem: When receiving emails with addresses separated by semicolons Thunderbird does not wrap the To and CC lines. This can cause the window drawing to mess up, loosing the search field and right hand window components. See attached png, notice disappearance of; the search entry field, unread and total in the status bar, columns after subject (this column was meant to take up about 1/3rd of its pane), the activity circle at the top right and the failure to wrap the CC line. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.5.0.7-1.fc5 How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send yourself an email with several (e.g. eight) To: addresses separated by commas 2. View it and expand the subject line field to display the date and recipient addresses Actual results: Several parts of the display are pushed out of the window Expected results: Window layout should not be affected other than showing the extra information

Problem also affects TB 1.5.0.8 in Fedora Core 6. Semicolon separation of addresses may not be correct, but it should not cause the UI to break.
Finally fixed by TB 2 in F7: UI has changed (addresses still do not wrap but TB can no longer get into an unusable state).
I wonder if the reporter can mark closed...
