The height of the viewing panel for emails is far too small. I can only see a couple of lines of text at the most and am unable to reduce the height of the incoming list of emails as previously in order to increase the height of the viewing panel. I have been helped to increase the font size of the overall layout so that I can now read it better but the green button to declare that my problem has been solved tells me that the page isn't working!

There is a way to modify the height of the viewing panel, or, which is the same thing, to set a minimum width of the message list. It requires the use of userChrome.css, and works in the current TB release version.
