I agree, it would be useful to see which message I'm looking at. There's only one vertical scrolling bar for whole messages in a conversation. I guess that this would require adding an additional vertical scrolling bar for each message in a conversation? Or maybe the message vertical scrolling would be the default when mouse focus is on the message? I guess that the design must be discussed.
This might be taken care of if we move to a full-height-message UX per Bug 792388 comment #1.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
