Adjusting font size in Thunderbird UI
Now that Stylish has been been removed from your add-ons, Thunderbird is almost unusable to me due to the text size in the menuss, tabs, mail list, and folder pane being tiny on my computer. (Tabs and menus in Firefox, too.) Please do not tell me to adjust my screen resolution and other Windows settings; the former will screw everything else up, the latter has already been done to the level it can be without screwing things up.
This seems like a pretty basic feature and I don't see why it hasn't been implemented long before now, anyway.
I miss the old Opera more and more every day...

I use a userChrome.css file.
/*
* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
*/
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
/*
* Make all the default font sizes 9 pt:
*/
* {
font-size: 9pt !important;
font-family: "Segoe UI" !important;
}
Another approach is to adjust one of these settings in the config editor.
layout.css.dpi - set to the actual dpi of your screen, or layout.css.devPixelsPerPx - use this like a scaling factor. You'll need a fractional value, I'd guess in the range 0.5 to 2.
ISTR the first of these may be only effective in Linux, so may not work in Windows.
Thanks for the reply, but I'm uncertain as to how to proceed with doing either of those things in Thunderbird. (I know how to do them in Firefox.) Didn't access to the config editor used to be under Tools in the Thunderbird menu? I don't see it there now.
In the Windows version of Thunderbird, via the traditional menu across the top, Tools|Options|Advanced|General>Config Editor
If you don't have this menu, press the alt key.

layout.css.dpi is an integer type, and the other is a string.

Thanks again, Zenos. The config options didn't work.
However, on trying to work with the user CSS again, I realized I had put the .txt file in the wrong folder and that the old script from Stylish was in the correct folder. Deleting the old and replacing it with the new did the trick.
If I could ask you one more favor, what script would I have to use to get the header bar with Correspondents/Subject, etc. to stand out from the message list, such as highlighting it with a different background color, or putting a thick border at the bottom? Should I start a different topic for this?
