My Thunderbird just updated to 52.9.1 and the e-mail text editing functions dissappeared, replaced by a limited number of simple boxes. I need to edit lists and other formatting options in e-mails. This is a real down-grade. E-mail replaces letters, IT IS NOT AN SMS OR A CHAT. Please tell me how to recover full text formatting options in e-mails, Best regards,

Finally right clicked to in the empty space in the top margin to the right of the limited formatting symbols and Low and Behold, I was able to "check" the menu bar and regain access to more detailed formatting options.

Almost drove me crazy ...
