Sounds like someone is jumping to conclusions. I'm using the
current official Fedora 8 thunderbird 2.0.0.9 update, and was
previously using the stock Fedora 8 thunderbird. Prior to that I
used thunderbird 2.x on Fedora 7.
The "View->Messages" submenu on the main window's pulldown menus has
been there in every single release as I use it all the time. As
mentioned in a previous mail in this thread, it is the main
thunderbird screen that must be used, not the message composition
window.
Of course and I have got the view-messages working by configuring
the the main panel to have Get Mail instead of just plain Mail. This
caused view-messages to be available. But this is NOT the problem.
The problem is that I only want to view only 5 total messages in any
main window. I do not know how to do this.
If you mess around with the size of the sub-panes, you can see only
the 5 most recent unread messages. (I use the class view with message
pane enabled.)
THANK YOU! It was the message pane I was missing. God how stupid of me.
I thought something really bad had happened but it was just that somehow
I had un-clicked message pane by accident.
Now it is back in good shape.
