Hmm, it just shows ... for me for all messages.


top-left near the 'Subject' header, the button?/header with the icon
that looks like a lower-case t, to the left of the star header - click it.
You mean the 'expand thread' triangle? That's not it, that just expands
the thread to a view identical to in Thunderbird2. I'm unable to get a
'3-4 line preview' view on any of my mails, as in the picture by the
first poster in this thread.
Unexpand the thread, then click on the first message, it should result
in that view.
It does, but every line just shows like this:-

Poster 1                               Date
  ...
Poster 2                               Date
  ...

And so on. I'm getting the correct view, what I'm not getting is the
'3-4 lines' talked about.

I believe that the messages need to be indexed before you will get the new thread summary view, or whatever you want to call it. On my thunderbird install, I think the messages are indexed after being downloaded. Sometimes it takes a little while before they are all complete.

Sometimes I don't see the summary view either, but it seems to work just fine after indexing. I'm using IMAP on a gmail account, if that makes any difference.
