Why are the mail box message lines and fonts so small?

more options

New to Thunderbird. Why are the mail box message lines and fonts so small? The only solution to fixing this seems to be to install and add-on. Is this accurate? Is there away to reset in preferences or view. Please note that I am not refering to the font size in writing a message. I want to enlarge the message list and fonts in the mail boxes. It seems strange that this is not a basic function of the program.

Thanks for any recommendations.

It may seem strange but the answer is to install Theme and Font Changer. The fixed version is found here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer-fixed/?src=search
