Hello

Try userContent.css https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1144690#answer-931503

blockquote[type=cite] {
   padding-bottom: 0 !important;
   padding-top: 0 !important;
   padding-left: 0 !important;
   border-left: none !important;
   border-right: none !important;
}

Copy/paste the code (for example) into Notepad
Save
Type: All files
userContent.css

Create a chrome folder
Move userContent.css to your chrome folder

Go to your profile folder https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-thunderbird-stores-user-data#w_how-do-i-find-my-... Open Folder

Move your chrome folder to your profile folder

Go to Configuration Editor https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/config-editor

Click on Configuration Editor...
The Advanced Preferences tab will open

Search for a preference name toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
To edit a boolean preference (true/false value), click on the Toggle button to set its value to true

Stop Thunderbird start Thunderbird

For a "non technical' person . ..this is helpful... but it's way over my head.
