Mail: How to show messages in list on 2 lines instead of 1?

Post by johnywhy »

Hi

Re: SeaMonkey Mail

In the Message List pane, currently all fields of each message are displayed in a single line:
From, Date, Subject, etc.

Is it possible to spread the fields onto 2 lines? Eg,
Subject, Date
From, Priority

thx

No. This has been a feature request for as long as I can remember. There is a Thunderbird fork called Postbox that managed to do it, but they didn't feel the need to share the how-to with Mozilla. Or if they did, Mozilla/the Thunderbird devs didn't incorporate it, which could then make it portable to SeaMonkey.

I'll see if I can find the "bug report" for it.
Edit: Bug is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213945
