Hi all. I seem to got into a right mess with the layout of my emails and now, when I see an email I get Message ID and Return path showing, which never showed before; also, when I print out an email I now get an enormous amout of script with a load of gobbledebgook. I just want plain, no frills emails and print outs! How do I restore Thunderbird to a simple format? Thanks in advance, David

Thank you for your response, but, I've even managed to loose the usual headings, so the 'View' icon word is not visisible! All this camne about as I had to reboot Windows 10 a week ago and reload Firefox and Thunderbird. Can I save my address book and delete Thunderbird and reload it? Thanks
