Comment 6 for bug 424021

Hello, I am very sorry by replying too late.
This is still reproducible in Lucid, with checkgmail -update recently run (now in checkgmail v1.14pre-svn).
To have the single panel, you must move the desired Gnome widgets to one single panel, by unlocking and dragging them, then you delete the panel in the top of screen.
You can also change the position of the top panel to bottom in Properties -> Orientation (see the new screenshot).
Unfortunately I haven't found a pattern to reproduce always the bug, but it happens sometimes.
Thanks you very much.
