My guess is your expectation is broken, not the column sizes.

In most folks world the columns are jammed into a small area between the folder pane and the message reading pane. Fundamentally you can not have columns that exceed the width of the space between these objects, so you have to shrink some other columns so you can make others wider. Sort of like trying to fit a fourth car in a three car garage.

I did see a bug report where this is being turned into a viewport type arrangement where you can have more column width defined than the space allows with a scroll bar across the bottom, but that obviously has not landed just yet as you are having difficulty with the column widths.

Dear Matt - thanks for the note. I'm very computer literate, and have had a long career in IT so I fully understand what you say.

Before Nebula, I could take the subject description column right side and pull it to the right and it'd get bigger and the cell to its right would get smaller. Nebula doesn't do that. It makes the column to its left smaller a bit but stops. so I'm stuck with the current column width unless I manually minimize columns to the right.

When I do the same with the date column - to the right of subject - it does the same - makes the subject col smaller a bit but stops.

The only workaround is to manually minimize columns to the right. But before Nebula TB did this automatically. This a huge degradation of functionality in my view (much more labor intensive.

Could you report this for me as a bug or feature reduction - or tell me how to myself? Thanks a lot.

By the way, in the ideas website, do you know how I can get a list of ideas I've submitted? Thanks a lot Thanks

Based on this topic https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1469273 I assume there is nothing Thunderbird here to waste further time on.


I would guess that the connect posts have failed moderation, or are still waiting. But I intend to lock https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1469273 as off topic.

Dear Matt - of course you're free to do so but it was not off topic. Unless this forum is only for questions and not for sharing related matter, e.g. that I reverted back because I got tired of the bugs. Thanks.

Regarding Connect, do posts show up in profile only if they've been approved ? My posts were totally on topic and suggestions, from standpoint of a senior IT guy.
