I can't seem to find the option to disable the new unified toolbar in TB 115 and get back native window decorations for Thunderbird. Where is it? :)

Two screenshots attached: One shows my current Thunderbird title bar, second shows how native title bars on my system look.

In particular: - I would like to the buttons from the symbol bar below the title bar (I need to be able to drag the window at arbitrary points in the title bar) - I would like to have an application icon on the very left of the title bar that allows me to close the window on double click. - I would like to have my additional title bar buttons (see attached screenshot) - I would like Thunderbird to respect the font choices for the titlebars of my desktop enviroment

Thunderbird really is the only application on my computer that does not support these three things. I get that the new toolbar looks nice on Gnome, but on KDE, it is the odd one out...

After an update I now have an option under "Language&Appearance"/"Hide system title bar" that hides/shows the native window decorations.

All I can do is refer you to this discussion. https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/beta/T1e491c1adeb509bf-M4c94be1d8be1017f0978c49f/will-i-be-able-to-hide-the-unified-toolbar

There is the feedback forum https://connect.mozilla.org/ which may be more purposeful that filing a bug as the product designed ui guy does not appear to see an issue.

Reading the discussion it seems that -- at least -- the current implementation is going to be extended. So, thanks for the pointers and your kind reply!

After update to FF 115 - not-so-superNOVA:

in Settings (for the application, not the account) -> General -> Language & Appearance -> Window Layout. The default is changed (even for existing users!) to "Hide system window titlebar". Uncheck the box for additional productivity enhancements.

A little more detail for those who have not been using the tools long enough to discover "shade window" and how effective that can be for managing multitudes of long-lived application windows... XFCE4 -> Window Manager -> Advanced -> Double click action/
