Mails Summary File (MSF) Formatting

Dear All:

I have been using Mozilla Thunderbird for nigh on 20 years now and have always used the the DEFAULT INBOX MSF file listing as shown in the attached screenshot entitled " MSF Normal Legacy Format", namely

                                            Correspondent, Subject, Date 

with all entries sorted in chronological order and new emails entries in bold.

I encountered my first ever "Building Summary file for Inbox" in 20 years.

All the inbox emails were rebuild BUT the format of the rebuild is completely different now with an extremely annoying format of:

                                           Correspondent,             > Subject            Date

where the > symbol launches a tree or layered listing of previously dated inbox emails linked by the subject title as shown in the attached screenshot "MSF File Rebuild Tree or Layered Format"

THIS IS EXTREMELY IRRITATING AS IT CORRUPTS THE TRUE CHRONOLOGICAL LISTING.

Could you please advise how I can change the format of the MSF file shown in the "MSF Normal Legacy Format" where emails are just as:

                                                      Correspondent, Subject, Date  in chrono order without the treeing or layering.

My version of Mozilla Thunderbird is 115.13.0 (64 Bit) running on Windows 7 Professional

Thanks.

So your list is in threaded view. It has been the default now for more than a year and I have been reading message from people who do not even know what threading is complaining about it ever since.

Perhaps read the support document on the topic. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-threading-thunderbird#
