My old top bar had buttons for

File Edit View............ Help Send Spelling.......Save

I did something while responding to an email that made that whole top bar disappear, not I have to click ctrl-Enter in the body to make an email send, I can't add an attachment without typing "attachment" in the text to get the option to add it, etc.

I would like the old arrangement, I think it's always been the default, back if possible, can't figure how to do it....

Thanks!

Sadly there is no menu bar in my Write window, the only bar goes from (left) Paragraph to (right) smiley face....
