If you have more than three addresses, then these three lines scroll. The only indication that there are more than three addresses is a tiny scrollbar all the way to the right. I recently sent an e-mail to more people than intended when editing an old message as new, because it had more To-addresses that weren&amp;#x27;t visible and I didn&amp;#x27;t notice the scrollbar.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m very happy that it&amp;#x27;s being updated.</text><parent_chain><item><author>LeoPanthera</author><text>Many of these UI changes seem like backward steps.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;blog.thunderbird.net&amp;#x2F;files&amp;#x2F;2020&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;compose-comparison.png&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;blog.thunderbird.net&amp;#x2F;files&amp;#x2F;2020&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;compose-compariso...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Old: Clear that you can enter multiple &amp;quot;To&amp;quot; addresses.

<instructions>Your goal is to analyze the following comment and estimate how highly it will be upvoted by the Hacker News community.</instructions><comment><author>ronjouch</author><text>Agreed about the flat buttons sadly following the OS-cohesiveness-hindering flatness fad instead of adhering to standard OS styling which can be recognized across apps by users.&lt;p&gt;Disagreed about the To&amp;#x2F;Cc redesign, the new design is much more efficient when you have multiple recipients, making good use of horizontal space. The old design did lead to:&lt;p&gt;1. Tons of wasted horizontal space (as each line is a recipient, on each line you only use the few characters describing each recipient, leaving space on the right blank). And also, one-line-per-recipient leads to tedious vertical scrolling inside a vertically-constrained space (3 lines by default, and you don&amp;#x27;t want more, you want to preserve vertical space for the email body, not the header).&lt;p&gt;2. Impossibility to easily copy&amp;#x2F;paste all recipients. With the new design, it&amp;#x27;s now easy: select all, copy (and repeat once if you have a Cc field, okay).&lt;p&gt;There&amp;#x27;s a reason this To&amp;#x2F;Cc design is what most (all?) desktop&amp;#x2F;mobile clients do.</text><parent_chain><item><author>LeoPanthera</author><text>Many of these UI changes seem like backward steps.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;blog.thunderbird.net&amp;#x2F;files&amp;#x2F;2020&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;compose-comparison.png&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;blog.thunderbird.net&amp;#x2F;files&amp;#x2F;2020&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;compose-compariso...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Old: Clear that you can enter multiple &amp;quot;To&amp;quot; addresses.
