how do i display or activate the pilcrow when creating a new email message
When creating an email i want to have the pilcrow symbol activated to show me tabs, spaces etc... is this possible in thunderbird?
also i should like to change the display order of the columns ..... eg i prefer (reading left to right) to have the following order:
Attachment Date Correspondents Subject
also i do not want the message pane to display as the default ...
Can you please explain how to set the above elements as my default display format?
Thanks for your help

I am not aware of any method to display such white space characters in Thunderbird. The nearest it offers, via add-ons, is to view and edit the HTML source directly.
Users who like such things often ask for a "pluggable editor" option, so you can delegate your text editing to your favourite editor that does have such features. Unfortunately, I don't think I can point you to a reliable pluggable editor feature either.

Right-click any of the column headings to see a drop-down list of the available columns. There you can add or remove any to suit you.
The headings (they are actually buttons and can be used to set sorting) can be drag-and-dropped along the toolbar to position them. Grab and drag their edges to set column widths.
F8 will toggle the Message Pane. This is also available in the menu under View|Layout.o, via the Application Menu button, under Options|Layout.

Am still unable to have the pilcrow displayed when i am creating an email to show me tabs, spaces etc ..... Is this not available functionality within the Thunderbird product?
To be clear: The pilcrow symbol ¶, also called the paragraph mark, paragraph sign, paraph, or alinea (Latin: a linea, 'off the line'), is a typographical character commonly used to denote individual paragraphs.18 Apr 2017
