Subject: Bug#33011: kmail config dialog doesnt fit on small screen
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kmail-devel&m=100189022705214

What about a vertical scrollbar? I notice that the konqueror config dialog 
doesn't fit in 480 pixels vertically either (its bigger than the kmail one), 
but it *is* usable when embedded in kcontrol because of the vertical 
scrollbar.
