i'm not sure what you mean. While in the inbox view customize the setting
and then all my new folders will have the same settings?

You could try customizing the default view to turn the Reading Pane off
(View | Current View | Customize Current View | Other Settings...).

Hi,

I'm new to Outlook 2007, I do not like the reading panes. I shut the
pane
off in my inbox and sent box. It seems that each time I create a folder,
the
reading pane displays. Can I shut that off for all messages?
