Auto Reading Inbox

Today my WLM started automatically opening a message instead of giving me a
list of all the messages in my inbox. Just FYI, this is on Vista Home.

Any ideas of what happened & how to get it back to showing a list of
messages in the inbox? This auto opening is a PITA!

TIA, Joe

View | Layout. Uncheck the Reading Pane.

If it’s opening the message in a separate window, then something is in play...

Even with the reading pane enabled..it should not preclude the center pane from displaying a list of messages in your respective
viewed folder(e.g. Inbox etc)

Thanks - fixed it. How it got checked is a big mystery, because I sure did
not know
about the reading pane existance.
