[MlMt] Widescreen Layout - A la Postbox

[Thomas Roberts]

Yeah, I’ve only ever seen this feature implemented as a very 
low-information view. I think Microsoft was the first to do this with 
Outlook (2003 or 2007) and it’s still not very customizable. 
Thunderbird also implemented a vertical view, and allowed you to pack 
all of your columns into it, but it was unusable if you added anything 
beyond sender, date, subject. I’d love to see this in MailMate, but I 
would not have any expectations that I could cram all of my existing 
columns in there. I think by design it has to be very basic like 
Postbox, Mail.app, or Outlook.
