If you just want to use the spacebar to navigate to the next unread message,
just right click the Toolbar, select Customize and add a button for Next
Unread message (or Next Conversation if that's what you want).

Hi folks!

Is it possible to create a toolbar button that performs the equivalent of
pressing the space bar on the keyboard in Outlook Express? I've done this in
Outlook with a VB macro, but don't see a way to do it in OE. You can
customize the toolbar by adding or removing pre-canned buttons for selected
functions, but you can't add macros or `arbitrary key combinations that were
not anticipated by OE's authors as far as I can see.

My motive is pure and simple laziness. I much prefer to navigate with my
hand on my trackball rather than shifting from it to my keyboard and back
all the time. So any suggestions you might have would be very welcome.
