Proper size

To reproduce, I usually see this behavior when closing evolution via "File -> Quit" menu. 

I have checked evolution always has a exit status of zero even when message view size is forgotten.

You can see in attached screenshots how I set "message view" size and how evolution forgets it in the second one.

Thanks for your help

The same with 2.32.1
Comment 3 André Klapper 2012-09-19 07:52:58 UTC 
Cannot reproduce with 3.2.3 on Fedora16 and the steps you gave (File > Quit).

Pacho: Is this still an issue in 3.4 or 3.2?

Bizarrely, the message preview pane size is wrong in Evolution 3.6.4 (and 3.8.3) when the "Evolution Tray Icon" plugin is enabled.
Comment 6 André Klapper 2013-07-08 15:03:19 UTC 
Not sure what the ""Evolution Tray Icon"" is. Link welcome.

Homepage is http://gnome.eu.org/index.php/Evolution_Tray

Its git (version 0.1.0) doesn't appear to do anything at all, with evolution 3.6.4

I tried Opensuse's patches, in evolution-tray-0.0.8-12.3.src.rpm at http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/src-oss/suse/src/ - that works, but with this preview panel position bug.
