I run with a resolution of 1152x864. I hardly ever run any application
full-screen unless I'm doing some photo-editing in an MDI type
interface. I am always able to view the columns in my message listings
unless I thread by references and expand the threads. All the columns
drift to the right because of auto-adjustments made to accommodate the
staggering of the threaded information. This results in columns going
partially or completely out of view.
I am simply suggesting that there must be a more efficient and
aesthetic way of doing this. All other apps that I use which thread do
this without ever auto-adjusting the column widths to keep information
in view or completely display collimated information.

<Ctrl> + * sounds like the keyboard shortcut that you need.
