reading pane in outlook 2003

[jas0n]

i prefer not to use the reading pane and have it switched off but it
seems its configured seperately for every folder, is there an overall
control for the reading pane in outlook 2003 so you can just switch it
off for all folders?

You can do this by changing the default Messages when all folders are still
in this default view. Otherwise define a new view and apply it on first use
of the folder.

if you are never going to use it, start outlook using the /nopreview switch.

At start menu, run, type outlook.exe /nopreview

If you want to use it with some folders, you need to customize the default
view, Messages. View, Arrange By, Customize, Define views and select the
Messages view, then Modify. For step-by-step help, see
http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/grouping.htm, replacing grouping with the
reading pane.
