Conky is not completely showing

I have a problem with conky.. It is cutting off the bottom of it, where it should show my emails and things like that. Here is a screenshot:

As you can see, on the bottom right corner it says "You have 2 new emails" and under it, which should show who the emails are from and the subjects, is cut off. This sometimes happens and sometimes doesn't...

Here is my .conkyrc

background no
use_xft yes
xftfont Terminus:size=8
xftalpha 0.8
update_interval 2.0
total_run_times 0
own_window yes
own_window_type desktop
own_window_transparent yes
double_buffer yes
minimum_size 5 5
draw_shades yes
draw_outline no
draw_borders no
stippled_borders 8
border_margin 4
border_width 1
default_color white
default_shade_color black
default_outline_color white
alignment top_right
gap_x 10
gap_y 10
no_buffers yes
uppercase no
cpu_avg_samples 2

use_spacer yes

Re: Conky is not completely showing

try increase minimum height of the window from minimum_size 5 5
to

minimum_size 5 800

Of course you can change it to your needs.

Re: Conky is not completely showing

Thanks, changing it to override seems to fix it
