Is there any way to scroll smoothly > one row at a time without a scroll wheel? I mostly using the wheel on the mouse or the touchpad to do some scrolling. I'm not a Gnome 3 expert so I can't suggest anything special or hiddne feature. But I would like to point you to the Gnome help. https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/mouse.html.en On the other hand this is a Gnome specific question, we can reassign this bug to gnome-desktop. Regards Carsten

It appears to work for me, but it scrolls exactly the number of items visible in the window, which is a bit disconcerting as I don't know if I've skipped over anything. Is there any way to scroll smoothly one row at a time without a scroll wheel?

It's a feature of the Gnome 3 DE philosophy with the Adwaita theme, just use the right mouse button on the scrollbar to scroll further or down a window height. Regards Carsten
Bug#827190: can't scroll large mailboxes
Package: icedove Severity: important Version: 38.7.0-1~deb8u1 Ever since upgrading to jessie and GNOME 3, I've had trouble with scrolling large mailboxes (mailboxes with thousands of messages) On computers with a scrolling wheel on the mouse, it is possible to scroll up and down a few messages at a time by turning the wheel If there is no scroll wheel, the only way to scroll is using the scroll bar. The scroll bar doesn't have up and down buttons at the top and bottom for scrolling by a small amount. Clicking in the scrollbar is too coarse and it always moves by a large amount. Please put back the buttons in the scroll bar
