Configuring "Supernova" folder pane

Hello, I was trying out the new options with Supernova's email folder pane, showing folder size, number of messages in the folder, and so on.

One of the options was hiding the mini-toolbar at the top of the pane, which normally has the additional get messages and new message buttons. (I'm not talking about the main Thunderbird toolbar, which has Get Messages, Write, Chat and so on—I mean the small one that appears at the top of the folder pane. I'll attach a screenshot to make it clear what I'm talking about.)

I tried hiding the mini-toolbar, but now I can't get it back, because the menu for doing so is on the toolbar which I just hid. I'm not sure if there is an option to re-enable the mini-toolbar somewhere else, and I just can't see it, or if the existence of this trap is a bug in the UI design.

Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

I think view>folders>folder pane header is what you're seeking. If main menu bar isn't display, click the alt key.
