Re: Email and Reflow at 320 CSS px

Well yes, Thunderbird does enlarge messages. They don't enlarge the font of
message titles or any operational aids. If I set my total resolution to
960x540 I can get almost a less than good experience, but I've traded the
ability to read messages for difficulty selecting messages.

Aren't we greedy. We'd just like to read the user interface.
