Include 3-column view option without fullscreen

[Šimánek]

Love the 3-column view that's available in fullscreen mode. Please make it an option to change this via the View menu. I never use my email client in fullscreen.

Sorry if the above statement makes it sound like you should make this change solely because of my preference. I meant that I am most likely not the only user out there that

A. never uses their email client in fullscreen
B. prefers a 3-column view

The 3-column view without fullscreen is especially useful for people with large displays. Fullscreen email probably makes perfect sense on a tablet, netbook or small laptop, but on a desktop system with multiple large displays a user is more likely to have ample room for 3-column view within a regular application window.

I've also come to strongly prefer the 3-column view. I think we should go default with it and even lose the horizontal split view altogether.

Personally,i like both:with a small window,horizontal view is much better honestly..
I think the best would be to give the possibility to switch,maybe with a shortcut..

I would like to have fullscreen horizontal mode viewing of the letter (optional), as with a small window. Not all have 16:9 monitors.

I would like to point out, that not everyone likes the 3-column view. I never use Postler maximized because of this. Personally I like to read long texts with as few linebreaks as possible, this is a lot easier to read for me.

The best option would be to make the view configurable so that you can choose from three view options:

- horizontal mode (maximized and unmaximized)
- 3-column mode (maximized and unmaximized)
- hybrid mode (the current implementation)

[Nobu (benjo316)]

Yeah, I like the un-maximized view (looks sort of like this: | |--| ).

I was planning on making a bug requesting a different view configuration, but I found this bug first. I was thinking a view with folders on the left at the top, the current folder contents (message list) on the left on the bottom, and the preview on the right, like this: |-| |

I'd be fine with either, though. If there's an option, then I'd be fine with any of the current views.
