I've been following this thread, and couldn't for the life of me work
out what you meant until this explanation. I see what you mean, but
I've never come across it before because I either use the mouse scroll
button, or page up/down buttons on my keyboard. And the reason it
behaves in this manor (I believe) is because of the time of editor it
is. You can do it in the New Message window as well, but that is
because the editor allows you to place the cursor anywhere within its
bounds.

I'm not sure I'd call it a bug, more of a feature of the editor ;)
Otherwise you could class being able to scroll down several pages
using the page up/down button, and the vertical scroll bar not growing
to reflect that (see Word/notepad, press and enter for several pages,
and look at the scroll bar). The bar is behaving (in what I'd see)
normally. The horizontal and vertical scroll bars should only (and do
only) appear when text breaks outside the width of the current screen.
As TB! itself soft-wraps non-broken lines, the horizontal bar should
(in theory, and most cases) never appear.
