DM: Interesting, Peter; thanks for sharing this. I will add it to my
list of potential solutions to check out. One difference on my systems
from yours is that I haven't ever seen the 'creep' that you've
described; Claws just always reverts to the same default panel
separator location, which shows approximately two messages in the
summary view. Funny how 'random' some solutions can be. :) ---Dustin
