Thank you for this great work! I could finally settle with a mail solution :)

I got a display problem: the body of inline messages got cropped.
Probable solution:
cypht/modules/inline_message/site.css
.search_content .msg_text, .message_list .msg_text { float: right; width: 50%; height: 50%; max-width: 50%; overflow: hidden; }
height should be 100%, or not set.

Thanks!

Interesting. I'm not seeing this behavior in chromium on linux, however I went ahead and removed the height rule from that css file in da8d9579 Let me know if that fixes the issue for you. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks, it solved it. I am using ubuntu-gnome, and chromium here also.
I investigated the problem, and it seems that the "height: 50%" was causing no problem, if the email was shorter then the email list on the left side. But I just got a super long email, and that revealed this problem.

I also found an other issue with inline messages: if the email is displayed in html, and has the width set, or the mail has a weirdly long attachment name, that cannot be wrapped, then you cannot see for example the download button, because the table has the overflow:hidden. So as a quick fix, that could be removed too.
I attached a screenshot showing the problem with attachments - overflow:hidden switched off for .msg_text in inspector.

I also have an another issue: downloading pdf, or xlsx attachments kind of works (hangs a little bit at 1mb) with Chromium, but fails completly in Firefox (ubuntu also), and on Android. I tried some settings already in nginx, and php-fpm, but no solution. Should I open an other issue here about this, or via email?

Thank you very much for the work!

@szilardx Thanks for the follow up. I just removed the overflow property. As before, I'm not seeing this behavior, but I also don't see any reason not to remove it (not sure what I was thinking when I added it!).

If you could retest that would be great, and if it's resolved for you feel free to close this issue.

Could you please open a new issue for the download problem? It helps me keep track of things if we keep issues separated.

Thanks!
