Resolution

Automated Steps

I wrote a simple Script that can automate all the changes, and you will have your Mailbox ready in less than 15 seconds, but still requires restart the Mailbox, so please keep in mind the service interruption, this Script is a Community contribution, not related or Zimbra official, you can find the GitHub here.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Zimbra-Community/zimbra-docker/master/Zimbra%20Google%20Chrome%2045%20Fix/zimbra-chrome45-fix.sh
chmod +x zimbra-chrome45-fix.sh

Now launch the Script

./zimbra-chrome45-fix.sh

Done! your users must do the logout/login, if they still facing the issue in some areas, they must clear the Google Chrome cache.

Manual Steps

You must to edit the next 2 files with your favorite editor, please be sure you do a backup first:

/opt/zimbra/jetty-distribution-7.6.12.v20130726/webapps/zimbra/skins/_base/base2/skin.css 
/opt/zimbra/jetty-distribution-7.6.12.v20130726/webapps/zimbra/skins/_base/base3/skin.css 

Update 2 - This steps are easier than before and the Web Client seems to work as expected: Then, search for the next 2 lines, if you replaced before, you must now let this 2 classes with the next content, if the content is like this, skip to the next step:

#skin_td_sidebar_ad                     {       width:@SidebarAdWidth@;    }
#skin_container_sidebar_ad                              {       @AdStyle@ width:@SidebarAdWidth@;       }

Then you need to search for the next content:

#skin_td_main	{ width:auto; height:100%; }

And you need to replace with the next content:

#skin_td_main > TABLE {
  table-layout: fixed;
}

Restart the Mailboxd services:

zmmailboxdctl restart

The user must do logout and login in their Google Chrome, if they still facing the issue in some areas, they must clear the Google Chrome cache. You will be able to see the Web Client like you used to:
