Hello,
I'm visually impaired. Use 800 x 600 screen resolution.
 When composing a mail, a lot of desktop space is occupied by the toolbar and:

-----------
From: name
To: name
empty line
empty line
Subject: something
(when using HTML) Font etc.
---------------------------------

Would it be an idea to have a shortcut key combination to hide the toolbar and the address and subject information?
This gives much more real estate.

If you do not want this in TB, it could be an add on.
Hope you can help me.
I'm willing to pay for this.
Kind regards,

PS, it sounds more like a feature request. Apologies, I saw no other way to contact a developer.

hope you can incorporate this.
hiding the toolbar is alt-v + t + o . But I don't think there's one for collapsing the addressing area or the subject

With the revised addressing area of version 78 this is no longer relevant
