This is actually a common problem.  With [View > Layout > Wide View] in
Thunderbird, F8 toggles between showing and hiding the message pane; I
use it quite frequently.  When reading message on the Web (e.g., a forum
instead of a newsgroup), I often forget that I am in SeaMonkey and not
Thunderbird and hit F8 to collapse the view of messages.  Ooops!  that
means I lose Prefbar.  Usually, I forget which function key did it and
instead go to [View > Show/Hide] to select and check Prefbar Toolbar.

You might wonder why I use Thunderbird instead of SeaMonkey's mail-news
capability.  I have four SeaMonkey profiles and switch among them
frequently.  This is because certain Web sites that I often visit
require a setup different from my preferred setup.  For example, I
disable popups, allow images and cookies only from the domain I am
visiting, and enable AdBlock Plus; the financial institutions where I
have accounts have Web sites that want popups, all images and cookies,
and cannot accept the AdBlock Plus blockages.  Thus, I have a profile
that is only for financial transactions at those institutions.  While I
am switching browser profiles, I do not want to lose my current E-mail
or newsgroup session.  Thus, I use Thunderbird, which remains unaffected
by switching SeaMonkey profiles.

I am sticking with SeaMonkey 2.26.1 until saved passwords can
be used when autocomplete=off.  See
