Hi!

By default, in Thunderbird there are three layouts: classic, wide and vertical.

The issues is: none of them is comfortable for me. The main pane for me is the email preview, cause usually I just read letters, the less important is email list, cause I need to see when, who and subject. I have 4 email accounts, a lot of letters, pretty little screen (notebook with 15.6') and the poor eyesight (which means - I am setting pretty big font).

None of layout doesn't allow me read letters comfortably.

Is there some possibility to make custom layout? Using some plugin maybe? I tried to search, but didn't find such plugins.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Great solution! I'd love to get the views offered by this addon. Trouble is, it's not compatible with my version! Could someone fix this please??? Or at least post the version it applies to in the main question/possible answers page so we don't get our hopes up. Thank you

According to the add-on website, it's compatible with TB 20+. State your TB version and operating system.
