Debian 11 with Mate Desktop, with clawsker window being shown as much as possible.

The clawsker windows is too tall, and cannot be resized to be accommodated in smaller screens. GTK has this bug in other windows, as someone told me (the application shortcuts window has this bug too, it is too tall, and cannot be resized and have a vertical scroll bar).

Why do you design such tall and wide windows, without worrying about smaller screens, or people who use large fonts for health reasons?

It is not fixed in https://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4543 . My screen is 1366x768, and part of it is used by the window manager.

Come on, people! Put a scroll bar! If you solve it with other changes later, you may remove them. But they are necessary, now. I cannot use clawsker this way.

Further, I am using an updated version of Debian, with updated versions of claws-mail and clawsker.

That's not true, as confirmed by the reporter of that bug. If part of the screen is used by the window manager is not Clawsker fault. Use a WM more suitable for small screens.

Anyway it could be an enhancement, despite your demotivating comments.
