Huh, I'm seeing slightly different behavior.  I'm attaching a
screenshot of the compose window.  The darker gray line above
"Subject:" is the split bar -- it's only two pixels tall.  The "active"
area (where the pointer changes, and where I can grab and drag the
splitter) is approximately ten pixels tall: the two pixels of the dark
gray line, plus ~8 pixels below that (toward the "Subject:" text).  If
the mouse is anywhere in that region, clicking and dragging moves the
splitter.

The main window split (between the message list and the message view)
behaves identically.
