Answer 1

Sounds/looks more like you want to use a JTable instead of a JList. You can then remove the the cell borders to make it appear more like a list with headers using table.setShowGrid(false);

Answer 2

Have you tried building each string for the list inserting a \t or 2 between each field?
name+"\t"+firstname+"\t"+email

Answer 3

You'll need to use a monospace font along with String.format().

But, you should really consider using JTable instead. I think you'll find it easier once you understand how to use it IMO.

I want to use JList. There's no method named padding to use for that?
