Simple clear advice in plain English

Reduce the distance between the entries in a Gmail window

Most people prefer to see as many emails in the window as possible. The new look Gmail has large gaps between the entries, but there is a way to reduce this

Adjust row height in Gmail
Using the Compact option lessens the space between email listings

There is a new look coming to Gmail that can now be enabled in advance of it being given to everyone. If, like me, you prefer to see as many emails as possible, the new look is rather wasteful of space with large gaps between individual emails. Changing the theme won’t make any difference, as this is set somewhere else.
