Message window hides latest message -- how to fix??

I'm hoping someone can please help me with a problem with display of the Adium message window I've had for a couple months now. I've tried everything I can think of short of deleting every adium file on my computer and reinstalling (I CANNOT lose all my chat logs, so am afraid to delete completely.)

The problem is that the message window hides most of the most recent message, so I can't read it:

This seemed to happen overnight, and has persisted through numerous changes to fonts, messages styles, one or new upgraded versions of Adium, and trashing of the preferences file. After maybe a couple screenfuls of chat, the problem suddenly goes away again, but is back for every new chat window. I've been using a huge font, so that I can see most of the message peeping out, but the bottom is still cut off.

Can anyone help? I'm at my wit's end.

Thanks!

Meh. I went through that with my own message styles as well.

Fortunately, I found a hack that worked, so the Terminal and Hazmat message styles of mine are “fixed” (although in an ugly way).
