Default Problem with resizing standard controls in Outlook 2007 custom for

Outlook version: OL2007 (12.0.4518.1014) MSO (12.0.4518.1014) OS version:
Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600

1. A custom form is designed based on the standard email form, inherited
from standard IPM.Note.
Custom form contains 2 standard controls: subject field and a message
control, both controls have "Automatically resize with form" checkbox
enabled.

2. Steps to reproduce:
- Create the form and save as .oft file
- Open custom form using "Tools-Forms-Choose Form", select "look In"
location "User Templates in File System", browse to saved .oft file and open
it.
- Select subject control in the custom form (selected by default)
- Try to resize the main window: subject and message controls resize OK with
it.
- Change focus to any other window
- Change focus back to the custom form
- Click on the message control in the custom form (this is important! -
resizing works correctly until message control in the custom form is selected)
- Try to resize the main window again: subject and message controls in the
custom form are not resized with the form.

The problem persists until next Outlook restart.

Any workarounds of fixes ?
