Just a question, or 2 questions,
In message window, Is there an option to hide the line [ View "All Accounts" .... Search <Ctrl + K< ]
and same question to hide the tab bar [ Inbox - Outbox - Draft - Search ]
?
It should be great to have theses options (with optional 2 buttons) to have a larger message window with same height than accounts window.
Thank you for your answer
and sorry, when you offer more option to the user, he asks for more

Hi KristOFF,
Based on what you've asked, if I understand your question, you're asking if what is enclosed in the red box below can be optional (in order to facilitate a larger area for the Inbox):
You can click on the screen-shot image to enlarge (to return to forum topic use the browser back-arrow)
The answer (as Pete [spc3rd] mentioned as well) is -- there is not an option to accomplish what you want. We appreciate your suggestion -- but from my perspective doing this would not be practical. If you send messages it can be necessary to have access to the "Outbox" tab. Also if you "hide" all of what is enclosed in the red box you would not have access to some very important PP functions including the "Search" feature not to mention the ability to focus the Inbox on specific accounts among other things.
Bottom line: in my opinion, it wouldn't be a good idea to not have access to these PP features. (Perhaps an argument can be made to have a toggle button somewhere on the Interface to do this as you have suggested - but then the required toggle button will be taking up room as well)
Oh and thank you for your compliments as they are very much appreciated.

The option mentioned by Jeff could suffice to accomplish a large part of what you have requested (see screen-shot example) which is to remove features above the Inbox (by using the "None" option) to increase the Inbox area and to make the Inbox pane to be more in alignment with the Accounts pane:

Doing this does increase the Inbox size some and aligns the top of the Inbox pane closer to the Accounts pane by removing the drop-down, buttons and search functions in doing so. But as Jeff mentioned - making this (PRO Edition) change requires a PP restart thus it doesn't operate as a toggle function to disable/enable these features so you would not have easy access to any of these removed functions by doing this.
Addendum: Note - I didn't try this (so no screen-shot - but would presumably give the same look as illustrated) but you could reposition this part of the PP Interface to the bottom by selecting the "Bottom" option (instead of either "Top" or "None") -- which would provide you with access to these features (at the bottom) of PP and at the same time would presumably align the top of the Inbox pane closer to the the top of the Accounts pane. So you might want to try that option. (and there are many other options in that "Interface" window that Jeff referenced as well)

If I asked how to hide this line, it is because I had upgraded to version 5, and the old version 4.52 (free version) that I was using,
did not have this line.
And since I didn't have the utility, I thought it was a shame to go back to version 4.52, to not have the display of this line.
For now, I will continue to test version 5.
