unable to set message list column headers
(ref: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-list-columns) Is anyone else seeing this ... I am trying to use "apply colums to folder and its childern" but it simply does not work (maybe a bit random). I know it used to work but something recently reset a lot of my feeds to default columns and I need to get them back to the (uniform) setting I use for them all. Doing them all manually without the assistance of "apply colums ..." is not something I want to do! thanks. (latest Thunderbird on Windows 7 / 64)

As a test; I added a column header 'Size' to my Inbox folder. click on icon and selected : 'Apply columns to' > 'folder and it's children' > 'mail account name' > 'mail account name'. (I did not select an individual folder - just the mail account name) I then refreshed all folders by collapsing and reopening or selecting folder to refresh it. All folders in that account were changed to exactly what was selected in the inbox.
Thanks. hmmm ... after a bit more googling I decided to delete localstore.rdf (see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Thunderbird) and that seems to have solved the problem although I had to got a reset all my mail and feed columns again, but luckily only once by using "apply columns .." whcih now works. I guess Thunderbird got confused :-) Seems to happen often enough.
