GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 374869
[PATCH] email messages start with bottom page displayed
Last modified: 2007-06-12 06:41:23 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I click a mail message, the message pops up while scrolled completely to the bottom. While starting at not the top of the mail might be useful if there was some sort of detection for where the sender's text started (for example when dealing with a long thread with lots of quoting), instead it's always the bottom so that usually it's halfway through the sender's message. Starting scrolled to the top like before would be just fine. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Please view bug#354991 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=354991). Disabling "caret mode" (Menu view -> caret mode) solved the same problem to me.
I can confirm this bug. See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=397259 as reference. I think this is a regression over 2.6 as this was working earlier. Disabling caret mode is only a temporary solution, there maybe people out there which want to use caret mode. But in this state this feature is useless. This should be severity major then.

Duplicate from bug #272708?
I dont think duplicate, but the fixes could be same. Just have to verify though
(In reply to comment #8) > Duplicate from bug #272708? > The patch will solve that issue as well.
@Sankar: what about also committing to gnome-2-18 branch?
The patch is committed by Srag on gnome-2-18 branch as well. http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/gtkhtml?view=revision&revision=8439 I should've updated the bug.
