Hi Chris,
To get rid of the Preview Pane in Mail, do the following:
• Make sure you're not Interacting with the Messages Table or the
MailBoxes Table.
• Navigate right to the Horizontal Splitter just after the Messages
Table.
• If all cursors track each other then simply use VO-shift-space-space
(double-click of the mouse) on that splitter and it will move the
Preview pane away.
• If your cursors don't all track each other, route your mouse to the
VO cursor location then perform the action outlined in the previous
bullet with the double-click of the mouse.
Note: This double-click action on the splitter toggles the Preview
pane on and off as you wish.
HTH.
Later...

OK, firstly, why do I wanna do what I am fixing to ask: I know you can't
really get viruses per sey on a Mac, but, it's not due to that. It's
just a personal preference a taste. OK, so, here is my question. You
know how when you're on the messages table, if you highlight a message
and then hit vo+J it'll jump you to the msg content which I think is
right below the message table, correct me if I am wrong? Well, you know
how you also, can just hit return on the msg to bring it up in a new
window? Well, what I am wonderring, is if there's a way to totally shut
that message content area off. This way, it's not even visible on the
screen. The only way then to view a mail, is to actually hit return on
it, and open it in it's own window, then command w to close it.
Again, if not, it's not that terribly big of a deal, but, I would really
prefer doing it this way if possible.
I checked the view menu, but didn't see anything. I dono if maybe I am
missing something.
Anyway, yeah, I also know I don't have to get ridda that thing just to
hit return and open it. Again, this is just a viewing preference of
mine. There is no real reason per sey. It's just how i prefer things to
be set up if possible.
Call me weird, but...
