I could make the subject line one size larger in the compact listings, if
that would help. It's at SIZE="-2" now, and it could probably go to
SIZE="-1" and still fit 20 messages on a 800x600 laptop display.

OK, give that a shot now.

Can you give me the URL of a page that is exhibiting this weirdness? Or
better yet, a URL and a screenshot? It's possible (but unlikely, since I
think you're running Netscape 4.5x) that you have a buggy browser which
handles table widths funny. MSIE used to be really bad at calculating
table cell widths dynamically, but it's gotten a lot better.
