How to prevent automatic collapsing of "inner" folders when collapsing "outer" folder in Outlook 200

In Outlook 2003 I created a big private folder tree where I store all my emails according to the topic.
Assume I expanded all the folder so that the "inner" folders are all visible in the tree.

Now I collapse the outermost folder and re-open (re-expand) it again immediately.

I expected that the collapse/expand state of the "inner" folder is kept.
Much to my surprise this is not the case. ALL folders are collapsed and I have to re-open them
all manually again. This is very un-convenient.

Is there an option to prevent this automatic collapsing of inner mail folders?

I don't believe Outlook keeps track of the expansion status of the inner
folders, only the top level.
