Reply All window doesn't wordwrap

When I reply in plain-text format to a message sent to me and 14 others, all is well. However if I do "Reply All" the text that I type doesn't word-wrap (it extends past the right edge of the window). If I attempt to change the width of the window, the window immediately jumps to a very large width, extending over most of both monitors of my two-monitor system. Clicking the right edge of the window changes the cursor to a double-arrow, as expected, but I'm unable to reduce the width of the window, though I can make it even wider.

Why is this happening? Thanks.

I found the source of the problem, which is caused by an add-on (Identity Chooser). It posts a warning message if the recipients are not in one's personal address book, and the long message (listing the 14 recipients) apparently prevents the window from being reduced in width.
