Quick question. I cannot change the column width, e.g. recipient, sender. Cursor does not change on horizontal arrow.

I found a solution this annoying problem. From menu "select column to display" click "restore column order" :) After installation TB this cursor is disabled to change the column width. Then click restore column order and everything is back to normal. Thx mate!

Given the heading space is usually "full" you generally have to start by shrinking the width of a column before you can expand another to fill the space.
