Removing buttons from message pane

I am using Thunderbird on a Windows PC. My display is conventional with folders on the left, message headers on the top of the right side, and the message reading pane on the bottom of the right side. I'm sorry if my terminology is not exact, but I think this should describe it well enough.

I received the upgrade to V82 this morning. Now when I look at the message pane one or two new buttons have been added. It used to have Reply, Forward, Junk, Delete. Now it has added Reply All and Archive.

I don't need those new ones and in fact I'd like to remove the Forward button as well. Can anyone tell me how to do that. I did try searching, but turned up no answer.

Thanks

Developers decided to remove the customisation - there's much discussion on wanting it back at this link: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1556261
