I've a proposal-fix for this problem: The problem is, that the mail-
account-configuration-dialog is too tall, which causes a resize of the
complete preferences-dialog. When singeling out the mail-notification-
stuff to a seperate tab, the height should be ok for configurations
1024x768 and higher (not sure about lower resolutions).

The file where the dialog is described is mail-config.glade, to be found
in mail/ directory in the source tree or in
/usr/share/evolution/VERSION/glade.

I've tested only 2.12 version. When using gutsy, and _only_  then,
rename the /usr/share/evolution/2.12/glade/mail-config.glade file to
something like /usr/share/evolution/2.12/glade/mail-config.glade.orig
and copy the attached file as mail-config.glade to your
/usr/share/evolution/2.12/glade directory to test it. Because I did not
alter the strings, translations should be ok.

If you accept such a fix, I'll try to make a patch for the source-
package.
