At last !:

> Card View emulates a mobile interface list with multi-line support, offering a more comfortable appearance to reduce cognitive burden.

Took them long enough.

And they said it couldn't be done, sheesh.

Outlook 2003 had that for... 20 years.

Thanks for the download Thunderbird white knights but I have the bug reports to back up my saltiness:

- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335310 Closed Bug 335310 Opened 18 years ago Closed 16 years ago Suggest Multi-line Message List display (great in vertical view)

- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213945 Bug 213945 Opened 20 years ago Closed 4 months ago Mail/message listing/thread pane needs more organization in 3 vertical pane view (column wrapping, etc) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=307013

- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307070 Open Bug 307070 Opened 18 years ago Updated 1 month ago Request for Outlook-style AutoPreview feature to see first few lines of messages

As the guy who made a close to pixel perfect office2003 theme for Tbird I have some sentimental value to this request and am very happy this has finally landed.

It's kind of weird they say it emulates mobile interfaces.
