I need a way to lock the column headers in Thunderbird. There was an add on back in version 2 but since we are on version 52 how do I get the updated add on to make this happen?

I'm running windows 10 on a Lenovo T530

This add-on works in TB 52, according to users:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/no-message-pane-sort-by-mouse/

Drag the green Download Now button and drop it on the Tools/Add-ons/Extensions window in TB.

What the author refers to as the 'Message Pane' is actually called the Threads Pane.

Thank-you for your help. It went super smooth and works great, hopefully the next re-vision won't mess it up.  ;-]
