Is it possible to set Outlook 2007 to EXPAND the TREE view of Mail Folders
(on the left-side window pane) each time Outlook opens?

It is a minor nuisance to have to click the little "+" symbol to the left of
my three IMAP email accounts to expand the tree so I can click the inbox to
read emails.

Thanks!
 
This is true for the "personal folders" tree but not for folders for IMAP
accounts.

I have two IMAP accounts containing various folders. Each time Outlook
starts the IMAP folders are collapsed, even if I quit Outlook with them
expanded. Is there any way to set Outlook 2007 to keep them expanded on
startup?
 
Sorry, I overlooked the IMAP bit. No, that is not possible for IMAP folders.
I'm not sure if you can trick Outlook by setting the Inbox folder of the
IMAP folder as you default startup folder. It's worth a try though ;-)
 
That worked! At least I can have one IMAP folder start expanded (of course
my other IMAP account still starts up collapsed since you only set one
startup folder )
