I read messages in the preview pane. here's a yellow bar at the top of the
message containing the Decline | Accept | Accept Tentatively choices. Same

I consider it part of the "headers" for preview pane, but maybe it has a
different name. "Yellow bar" will do in a pinch.

What i am continually amazed it is that people feel so threatened at the
slightest departure from boring routine. OK, it's new, it's different it

not something to be afraid of and complain about. Oh well, takes all sorts,
I suppose.
