When Thunderbird blocks remote images in a mail message a huge message comes up telling "To protect you privacy thunderbird has blocked remote images in this message".

Although this message is not very large on a 1280x1024 display it is on mine 1024x600 display (acer aspire one 110), so a smaller information to the user is wanted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Find a message with images that Thunderbird blocks
2.Show it on screen.
3.It takes a lot more space on a smaller screen than on a bigger one
Actual Results:  
display window looks to small

Expected Results:  
highlight a toolbar button instead to load remote images

Remove the protect image message as it now and have a toolbar button to allow images. Images in the message is shown as now when they are not loaded ("broken image")

A full screenshot would help to clarify how bad this is in your case.
There are several other toolbars likely affected, and I think the current design was an explicit choice to have a big informative message.
This does not seem like that big of a problem. Sure it is bug, but it does not take too much room up, you can get rid of it easily, and you can always open the message.
I can open up a window, but it is additional work. If you have several of this kind of messages it is better and easier to have an easier front end mail window.
I'm annoyed by too wide "privacy message" because of long sender email address.
This make 'suppress button' gone out of screen. Unfortunately I would have suppressed such a message.

So I suggest too limit width of buttons zone
