1833298 - Newsgroup names not using abbreviated name in Message List Header

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, enhancement)

Description

[Michel]

Attachment: Screenshot of overlowing Message List Header

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1813371 +++

Is it possible to use abbreviated names in the Message List Header, to keep it from overflowing too fast?

And/or perhaps the Quick Filter button could be made to switch to icon only, on overflow.
