            Bug ID: 4521
           Summary: User changes to message view size do not persist if
                    program is terminated when message view is hidden
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 4.0.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: UI/Message View
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: dustbiz at gmail.com

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Use the 'Standard' layout from 'View - Layout' in the menu. Show the message
view and adjust its size until there are six messages visible in the message
list. Hide the message view.

2. Terminate the Claws Mail program; then start it again.

3. Show the message view.

Actual Result: The message view takes up a larger amount of space such that
only about 2.5 messages are visible in the message list.

Expected Result: There would still be six messages visible in the message list.

Note that the expected result is how 3.18.0 (gtk2) currently works, in case
that is a helpful reference.

Depending on how often one opens and closes Claws, this bug results in needing
to do a lot of redundant resizing of the message view area unless one is okay
with the default. Based on my use case, I've kept the priority of this bug at
'Normal', although I do realize that other use cases would indicate a 'Trivial'
or 'Enhancement' priority.
