Outlook: In list of mail folders, allow horizontal scrolling.

[Guest]

In the window that shows you folders, expecially mail folders, why don't you
allow horizontal scrolling in that window?

Once a couple of sub-folders are created it becaes very difficult to see the
sub-folder names (indented), expecially when you are dragging a mail message
to a destination sub-folder. The sub folder names may contain a common name
as the first part of the name, followed by the sub part of the name, which
disappears beyond the right margin of the window.

You should have both automatic scrolling for when you drag objects to
folders and manual scroll-bars when you are looking for the folder that you
want.

What version of Outlook? In Ol2003, try Ctrl+6 to get a view that has a
scroll bar or drag the vertical bar inward to make the pane wider so you
don't need to scroll... otherwise, the full name should display when you
hover over the folder.
