Hi Omar,

I was using VBOX and had the entire desktop rather small, and with the
application open, under Enter Your Account Details >> What Type of Account do
you have: (Gmail, yahoo, Facebook, etc).

When the Pull-Down list opened, I needed to cursor down to Yahoo, as that was
the type of account I was setting up. After scrolling down to the bottom of the
list, The Up-Arrow that allows me to cursor back up disappeared. Only way to get
back to the top of the list was to close the Enter Your Account Details, and go
back into Create a New Account.

It's not something allot people are going to have trouble with, as usually they
will have a large enough screen to where the Up/Down arrows wont even appear
when your selecting the account type.

Greg.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: empathy

Description: Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
Release: 10.10
Installed: 2.31.5.1-0ubuntu3
Candidate: 2.31.5.1-0ubuntu3

Test Document Information:
Basic Account Creation
Case ID: emp-001

   1. Open empathy either from the Envelope on the task bar or from
Applications->Internet->Empathy.
   2. On initial start up you are presented with the basic account creator. This
can only be be used to
      create accounts that only use username and password.
   3. Select one of the account types, most common of these are msn, gmail and
jabber.
   4. Once selected type in your username and password for the account.
   5. You can go on to create extra accounts at this point or close the account
creator.

Action-3 Failed: During a new account creation, after I scrolled down to the
bottom of available account types, I was unable to scroll back to the top.
Canceling out allowed me to re-select the account types listed toward the top.
This is only a problem is if the window size is such that the scroll is actually
enabled.

All Other Account Creations Tests Passed.
