Thunderbird has gone unreadable. Trying to make text readable makes text overlap.

The default font size in Thunderbird menus, etc. is painfully unreadably small. Trying to impose a readable font and readable font size using the following user css makes the text overlap because the lines are still too narrow:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

/* Global UI font */

  • { font-family: Andika !important; }
  • { font-size: 16pt !important; }

Is there a hack to make the lines wider, so text will not overlap text?
