The third mode is that:
-----------------------
|       |             |
|   1   |      2      |
-----------------------
|       3             |
-----------------------

1. treeview of accounts and dirs
2. mails
3. actual mail

The actual mail (F8, pane) is problematic with long mails, and sometimes I need
to read with more width.
This layout is helps to this problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Isn't this the 'second' mail layout ? See Options->General->Window
Configuration. It's called 'wide view' in the menubar.
Sorry, I draw wrong picture, and wrong text. That is the good:

-----------------
|       1        |
------------------
| 2  |   3       |
------------------

1. messages
2. treeview
3. msg. pane

Sorry. I want to write this.
In this mode you fully see the mails, all of the information columns are max.
width. You see them mail infos better.

In 800/600 video mode you don't see more of the columns.
We have many machines that cannot have good videocard, so 800/600 is maximum.
