Description of problem: Evolution Configuration Dialog does not work if screen resolution is 800x600 (It is too big so the buttons on the bottom are not visible) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.8.0-7.fc6 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Change Resolution to 800x600 2. start Evolution for the first time Actual results: The window is a little bit wider than 800 points and a lot higher than 600 Expected results: It should scale to the maximum available size instead and should not assume a higher resolution.
Thanks for the bug report. I agree that the preferences dialog is too large for a 800x600 screen resolution. Its size seems to be driven by the layout of the "Mail Preferences -> General" tab. To resolve this bug the preferences dialog would have to be redesigned, and I'm afraid I don't have any say in that matter. Your best bet is to file a similar bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ for the upstream Evolution developers to consider. It might help to suggest ways to reorganize the preferences so that the dialog window can be made smaller.
