Several Issues

First, there used to be a columnar format that included a heading. I could sort entries by double clicking the column heading. This was handy for selecting email by date and deleting or moving them. That seems to have disappeared in Versiona 128.9 Oesr. Is there a way to recover that view?

The reason I discovered this is that I'm receiving a message on virtually every attempted Thunderbird operation saying that there is not enough disk space to complete the operation. I cannot tell if this is a Thunderbird message or a Microsoft (Windows 11) message. I've attached a screenshot. I've checked and there should be plenty of disk space; but, of course, there is a lot of spam mail in my T-Bird that I could easily delete. I've tried setting up Message Filters to delete unwanted email but that, too, produces the error message.

Can anyone tell me how to a) get my column headings back in T-bird, and b) fix whatever is causing the message?

I fixed my disk space issue. I can now download email; however, the need to delete a lot of spam email remains; so my question about column headings and sorting by date remains outstanding.

It would be good to know what you are seeing on your screen. Can you post a screenshot?

Are you viewing messages in cards view but you want table view? Click on the button that looks like a film strip on the right of "Quick Filter". Is "Cards View" selected? Select "Table View".
