Re: [PATCH] mailbox tree

[christophe barbé <christophe barbe online fr>]

The patch is buggy. Each time the in-menu mblist is displayed, the width is
saved with the correct value + the witdh of the scrollbar (if present).

A better solution could be to avoid saving the width of the tree widget
when created for the right click menu. 

Another solution could be to not saved the parent width which is the
problem source. I think this is a design mistake to save from a children
the width of its parent window.

I will try to do a better patch for this bug.
