Bug Description

There is a problem in Thunderbird preferences (Menu > Edit > Preferences).
On the tab General, preferences doesn't fit in the window by default
There is too much space at the bottom of the window, some preferences can be moved there. I've drawn example of it.
Could you fix it?

Seems fine using Xubuntu 17.10 so may be a problem with the theme rather than with Thunderbird.

Sam, please advise which version/flavour of Ubuntu you are using.

Removing assignee as that is for the developer that will actually fix the issue.

Recent Thunderbird releases now display 'Preferences' in a main window tab which greatly increases the space available to display text boxes and buttons. Closing as fixed.
