There is a preference somewhere that you can add/modify in prefs.js
(might be something like user_pref("show_pretty_names", "false");
If you hover over the truncated newsgroup name in the folder pane, you
will get a tooltip with the full name showing.
And, message counts are on the bottom of the 3 pane mail window,
in-between the progress meter and the offline icon.
