Hi!

I've just come across a little cosmetic bug in Mail, and I wonder if it's restricted to the German localization (which has happened before), so maybe one of you could try to reproduce this (no danger involved):

Open the Preferences in Mail, tab Accounts/Advanced (I guess this is the English term, in German it's Accounts/Erweitert). Now increase the size of the Preferences-window by dragging the corner to the right and watch the lower part of the window where you enter the port number. On my system, the text field extends to the right and moves under the "Use SSL" button.
Does this happen on your systems, too?
Thanks!

Edit: This is in 10.3.2.

I'm running the English version of 10.3.2, and I don't get that bug.

Hi, I
changed the language to German on my system, reopened Mail and the bug occured, changed back to English and the appearance is normal i.e. the bug doesn't occur. Tried the same thing in Finnish and all was as it should be. It would seem this is a bug restricted to German (and perhaps some of the other localisations).

Cheers Ry

You're right, sorry. And thanks for testing.
