Sometimes I find that the status lines only reads correctly when the window has been maximized. You might see if that helps in this case.

I am used to having a status line in Thunderbird that tells me how many messages there, how many are not read and in some cases, how many have been deleted. I have tried using both the insert-page down on the number pad and the ones on the six-pack. It says absolutely nothing. Oh yes, somethimes, when I am on the desktop, it will tell me either the date or the time, depending on what mood it is in, grin. Thanks for any suggestions.
