Description Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2008-09-15 13:07:53 UTC 
OS: opensuse 11.0
Evolution: 2.22.1.1

When we receive html mail which is big to display in window and contains scroll bars, its behavior is weired. Generally it tends to scroll right automatically. When we scroll back, it again scroll right automatically. Sometimes it scrolls to top also. Today I got a mail which keeps scrolling top right. Then I clicked mail window and moved cursor to end of mail and now the mail keeps dancing :)
The mail had one animated gif image. And the mail tends to scroll automatically when there's animation in the image.

DO NOT USE SUMMARY. DO NOT USE SUMMARY.

Does the HTML email contain animated GIF images?
Do you have caret mode/cursor mode enabled (F7)?
Comment 2 Ruchir Brahmbhatt 2008-09-15 14:12:52 UTC 
Sorry will keep this in mind for summary.
Yes as I mentioned in mail it had animated GIF image. And I have caret mode enabled.
