I mean that the new message is _outside_ of the messages view, it is not
visible at all, like if when Sylpheed (or GTK+) tries to show it
scrolling the messages list it fails to calculate the scroll amount (or
direction). I am using sylpheed-2.6.0 from Debian Sid btw.

Please try if you can trigger this bug setting:
  View -> Sort -> by thread date

Thanks,
