I'm sorry, but that is currently not possible. It requires a new view type since a multi-line layout as described above would not work well in the current messages outline. It requires sorting to be handled differently and enabling/disabling columns does not really make sense. Functionally, I would say the messages outline is most often better, but visually the multi-line style can be nicer and it works well in a widescreen layout. If I ever implement such a view, I would probably do it in such a way that it was customizable with respect to what was displayed, but this is not close to the top of my list, so don't expect anything. -- Benny
