I recently updated to 115.3.1 under Ubuntu 22 and was enthusiastic, also "bought you a beer". But now I am dissapointed with the menu bar and customization. I would like to be able to use the last interface (aproximately) and playing with the customizing interface is more a developer task. I don't need it all for the moment. I need you to focus more on the FUNCTIONALITY and to offer us lot of tools like that to drag menu options ad make them whatever is something with low importance.

Please provide me a way to make it look as much as possible as previous version.

All I can do is give my advice as I have set 115 up. Others may offer other suggestions. My suggestion is this: - rightclick the unified toolbar and click 'customize' - drag all the buttons you would normally use, such as get messages, write, forward, delete, etc - if menu bar is on, click view>toolbars and UNtick it - click view>folders and UNtick the folder pane header (This is optional. I happen to like that header, but omitted from my screenshot to give you a view close to 102.)

Now you have a clean view. Instead of menu bar, you have the hamburger menu in upper right. This view is now close to 102, but in doing so, you lose some of the features of the folder pane header. This new design completely removes the need for the old menu bar and gives you full control of what features you want. Okay, I may seem biased, but I was like you at first. I didn't like the view and I insisted on keeping the menu bar. Now, I prefer the new view. And THANKS for being open to this change. So many post here with anger that the view is different. True, it's different, but is very flexible.
