Re: Enabling Preview Pane in Thunderbird

The toggle for the view pane is f8.  I don't know why you like to know a little of what is in a message before you open it, but if your concern is safety, it is no more safe to open a message in the view pane.  If something malicious is going to run, it can run then.  If you want to be safe from any possibility of malicious code but have things function like links, use the simple html option for reading mail.  It allows html to run that causes messages to display as intended and for things like links to work but nothing can run.

I recently installed the Mozilla Enhancements add-on for NVDA and understand that I can read a message in the preview pane with this add-on without leaving the message list by pressing NVDA plus Down Arrow on my desktop PC. Since I like knowing at least a little of what's in a message before I open it, this sounds appealing. However, I can't seem to figure out how to enable the preview pane. Any ideas?
