Maybe there is a bug in gtk (or elsewhere) because in the messages  
list, the title is not always displayed the same way:
If this kind of message is "new" (unread) when I open the box, the  
title is displayed on several line but the sender field looks  
corrupted: it is displayed twice, once on the second line overlapped by  
a second copy (correctly displayed) on the first line. Now if The  
message has been read, the second time I go on this box, it is  
displayed only on one line, the second line of the title not beeing  
displayed in the message list window.
