You do know you can resize the various Thunderbird panes by putting the
cursor over the dividing lines, waiting for it to turn into the double
arrow cursor, holding the left mouse button down and dragging the lines
whichever way you want. It's sticky, meaning the next time you open
Thunderbird it'll appear in the same way you buggered it the last time.
I've used it extensively.
The is also an available "CompactHeader" addon for Thunderbird, which
add the ability to reduce the header size to one or two lines. I've been
using that for quite a few years, now.
