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.
