Opening Windows Mail Account

[jamie]

When I log onto Windows Mail, my emails automatically open upon logging in.
I am concerned that some unsolicited emails may contain viruses. Is is
possible to reset my account to only open an email after I have selected it
to open?

If you are referring to the Preview pane, that can be turned off...

View - Layout..
uncheck [ ] Show preview pane

Personally, all I use is the preview, and don't view it as a hazard.
