Hi Ken, I found a duplicate report in the Mozilla "Bugzilla" website and it provides a solution. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=502371
To quote comment number 3: "This may be specific to the locale based on any strings being longer than in the en-US version. The other option may be that your DPI value is wrong and thus the fonts larger than intended. If you go into the Advanced > Config Editor preference settings, find layout.css.dpi and set it to a default of 96 by double-clicking on that entry. If this doesn't work, reduce that value to shrink the sizes. I've seen cases where KDE passed a wrong DPI value down to Thunderbird and therefore caused issues with the dialog display." Attached is the screen print of my DPI settings before I changed it and you can see that it is set to "-1" I will attach another screenshot to the next comment, of the settings after I changed it to 96. And the new setting makes the items in my preferences window smaller and so now everything fits in the window. Will you try it?
