Description Sebastien Bacher 2007-05-22 14:35:42 UTC 
The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/115081

"Binary package hint: evolution

Version: Feisty using up-to-date packages and a pretty basic install.
tested with all themes including the human themes. I will attach PNGs of the issue.

Basically, if you're creating a new mbox, maildir, or other type of folder or file based receiving type of server, the dialog that shows your current selection does not give enough space in the widget for the text to appear (see screenshots).

1. Open evolution and configure one of your server accounts
2. in Recieving Email subfolder, choose maildir format
--> The text inside the folder/file chooser does not fit, I don't know what its supposed to say. This combined with the folder select bug was causing a lot of confusion.
