Hi Thunderbird Community,

My email columns use to look like this (first image)

Now they look like this (second image)

I found a column chooser, but I do not see subject available (third image).

What should I try next to revert to the original (image 2) or add subject column in another way?

Thanks for reading :-)

RESOLVED!

Found a similar thread here about disappearing subject columns: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1290118

Since this only happened to some folders, I was able to go into a different folder and use the 'apply columns to' choice in the dropdown to be able to see subjects again.
