This sounds like something that happened at the window manager level, not within Thunderbird itself. Some window managers have features that allow you to make a window "full screen" (with or without including a title bar), or to make the window go "full screen but only vertically". I'm not familiar with your Desktop Environment -- was it MATE? Trinity? It would help if you remind us which one it is, on this machine. > Hold down Alt then left-click anywhere on a window.

It might be denoted by a large square. Usually a button like that is a toggle, which switches between the two sizes, so pressing it when it's in the vertically-enlarged size might return it to normal. Otherwise, you may have to consult your window manager's documentation.
