| | | New Poll: Do you use the reading pane on the bottom or right? | Outlook 2013's header is somewhat larger than Outlook 2010's which was larger than Outlook 2007. This is not a problem with the ready pane on the right - even on smaller screens, the first few paragraphs are visible, along with several messages in the message list. When it's on the bottom, the header takes up a lot of screen real estate. Having the reading pane on the right makes more sense and I'd like to know if many people use it on the bottom. (Voting in the poll does not require registration.) (Feb 26) |
