The sender display in the Thunderbird inbox has changed and I'm surprised, so I want to change it back to the original display

Hello.
I'm Mandai, the Wild team member in charge of development.

If you have automatic updates enabled for Thunderbird, you've probably experienced that sudden change in screen layout that can be quite startling.
When I automatically updated to version 45, the "Sender" column was replaced with "Recipient," and the direction of the arrow indicated whether it was a send or receive message, which left me confused.
While it's a nice new feature, the lack of a clear "Sender" display is confusing, and I really want to fix it!

Let's do something about it!

It's easy to do

It was simple; just right-click on the header that lists the subject, recipient, and date and time of the message, and you could choose which ones to display

For the inbox, you can restore it by following the steps shown in the image below

It's a simple setup, but I ended up spending a bit of time checking irrelevant options and other things

I looked at the release notes for the first time in a while and thought
As an email software, Thunderbird is so functional that it seems there is no need to add any new featuresmodestlyIt seems like they're slowly adding new features

Thunderbird 45.0 Release Notes

It may not seem logical to an outsider, but I decided to continue using ThunderBird for the rest of my life

That's all
