Unable to customize message toolbar

With the latest update my message toolbar got changed and I can't figure out how to fix it. This is the one with Reply, Forward, Archive, Junk, Delete, More. I want the Delete button (the most frequently used) to be on the far right side with a gap beside it so that other buttons aren't pressed by accident. There is no customize option for this toolbar and the customize dialog for the main toolbar doesn't work for this toolbar.

I think this probably got broken in the latest upgrade. Until it is fixed, where can I find where this customization is stored so that I can fix the toolbar to a more logical layout?

Thanks.

Thanks, that helps a lot. It's a shame that this bug exists in the current release, but it's good that there's a workaround.

Actually easy solution: just create new message and push "alt" key then click on "view" then tick "menu bar" https://support.mozilla.org/gl/questions/1135668

I have found this solution with Google then was redirected to support mozilla. Shame we cannot found it faster on this website
