I have gone through the same issue on a mouse-less, old synaptics
touchpad-only system (no gestures, no multi-tap).
In my case, something during the upgrade to f17 has changed xfce's
"Appearance/Style" to using "Adwaita"-style. This style lacks "arrows"
on scrollbars and therefore hardly usable in scenarios like yours or
mine.
Changing "Appearance/Style" to a different "style" through
"Application Menu"->"Settings"->"Appearance"->"Style"
brought back the "arrows".

That seems to make scrolling through the e-mail list manageable
again as long as I disable the "New Scroll Bars addon" to
Thunderbird. That addon allows increasing the size, etc. But I can
do without that.
Thank you for the tip.
P.S.: I am facing other issues with Gtk/Gnome based packages under
xfwm, esp. gnome-terminal, e.g.
- gnome-terminal seems to use black letters on black background by
default.
- changing the "style" as described above lets open gnome-terminals
shrink and sometimes hang.

I probably would not notice this since I always reconfigure the
terminal appearance for a larger white font on a black background
which works better for my aging eyesight. I also prefer Deja vu sans
mono because I can easily differentiate between I, 1, and l.
Again thanks,
Bob
