Hello, On my old computer Thunderbird gave me two horizontal planes - the top one listed messages, the lower on showed the selected message text. On my new computer, the full screen shows just the list of messages but does not have thew lower pane to display the selected message. How do I reset this please? Grateful for any suggestions. Thanks, Paul
