  @andreaska well that's why I cc'd VDG on this from the beginning :-)

  I removed it for now - the usefulness of those options is questionable and I think we should aim more at simply honoring KDE-wide settings regarding icon sizes, and just decide to have tooltips always on. Regarding toggling size/count/read/unread - this view I'd just go with simply showing the unread count in parenthesis, no other options. Is it really useful to see message count/size in the folder view? You can always read it in the tooltip, but otherwise I think it's kinda useless....In any case I would keep the old folder view as an option (we already have message list themes, message viewer themes, we can easily have folder view themes :-)) and the old view would keep all the features preserved.
  
  Another reason why I removed the header is that I really don't like how it looks like in Breeze with a scrollbar - notice on the screenshot how the scrollbar goes all the way up next to the header, seemingly cutting-off the header? I think it's quite ugly. It also did not look well in combination with the same-as-window-background.
