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 are talking about how many lines of other message headers show
above the message display, just drag the dividing panel up to the size
you want for each part.
Exactly but you do need to have a check mark in View -> Layout ->
message panel and then you can move the size around to suit you. Very
nice now that I know how to do it.
