I am a new user of OL2003 (and quite pleased so far) and am working through the learning curve. Can someone tell me how to disable the Reading Pane? I have turned it OFF under the View/Reading Pane/OFF but it seems to creep back in unexpected. I thought that I read that it needs to be turned OFF for each folder. Is this true and if so, is there a simpler way than accessing each folder and setting it OFF? What did I miss?
