I just encountered this symptom again, and resizing the window did NOT help.

I'm just clicking on another message in the message list, then back to the problem child. Both before and after I do the switch/switch back, I'm viewing the message in the message pane. I almost never open a message in its own window unless I'm trying to look at two simultaneously.
