            Bug ID: 4644
           Summary: Column headers are brittle: masking on horizontal
                    scroll; resizing of columns
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 4.1.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: UI/Message List
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: pf at pfortin.com

To reproduce:
- narrow the main window so the message list has a horizontal scroll bar with
about 1/2" (1cm) available motion
- slide the bar
- note how the column headers' icons/text are all blanked out a pixel at a time
as the scroll bar is moved

If the main window is narrowed further, with say 2" (5cm) of scroll space; the
effects are more destructive of the headers (not permanent). 

Probably should be a separate bug report; but the code handling the headers is
quite brittle:
Changing the width of the {lock,mark,status,attachment} column adds more
confusion to the display requiring manual editing of clawsrc and a CM restart
to clear up.  Maybe the icon columns should be a fixed size based on content;
it's not intuitive to get them back to reasonable sizes without manual edits
and restarts.
