Column headers needed to sort emails by: From, Subject, Received etc.

My Thunderbird email use to have columns titled: From, Subject, Received & Size. They disappeared. How do I restore?

1. There are two methods to sort emails.

Method 1: View > Sort by.

Method 2: Click "Message list display options" > Click "Sort by".

2. To show column headers, you need to use Table View rather than Cards View. Steps: Click "Message list display options" > Check "Table View".

3. "Message list display options" is located on the right side of Message List Header. If you do not see Message List Header, it is hidden. To show it up: View > Layout > Message List Header.
