Why are the headers in the preview pane so MASSIVE? Is there any way to completely remove them?

Thanks for the reply but I already tried that and it merely removes a couple of lines in the header - although in Outlook 2010 it doesn't seem to work at all.

I just can't see why they would waste so much screen area for somehting with such little information value.

thanks

PS I went back to Office 2003 (the last decent version)

Made that way by f*tards using 5 inch high sigs... why?

Actually most consider using such large sigs rude.
Posting stuff like that is not going to get you help at all.

If you have a problem with a user, pm that user or a moderator, don't bash on the forums.

Doesn't work for me ether. When I click the last OK to close the box the preview pane flashes but the header info is still there and when I go back and check the settings the check mark is gone. :(
