Using default text size (12pt) on a 1920x1080 monitor, the text display in Thunderbird (31.4.0) folders is fuzzy. This seems to have started when I upgraded to Win 8.1 but it may have started since then.

Text in individual messages at this size is fine, and text displayed this size by all other apps is fine too.

I have seen a number of solutions on the web for this problem -- Thunderbird basically ignores ClearType -- but the fixes (which involve the Tools -> Options - Advanced - Config Editor) don't seem to apply to my version of Thunderbird. Can anyone help?
