Default New window

If I double click on a message it properly opened in a new window but a
large part of that window is used up with a expanded header:
From
Org
date
newsgroup
org
attachment

Can't see where to get rid of this and it makes going to full screen view
useless.
Thank you
SG

Try using OETool (a free utility) to work around the problem. Just click on
the Full Screen button to see the message as you want it to be.

I'll give that a try. Thanks
my "poor" memory says that did not used to happen. Something from SP2 maybe.

Default New window Bruce-Jim FOLLOWUP ?

Works good. One question though---Is there a way to advance to the next
message when in full screen mode without backing out "alt-f4" and then
selecting next message and full screen?
Sorry for he trouble but I appreciate your help.

No, that option is not built in. Either use Alt+F4 or right click anywhere
in the window to bring up a dismissal window.

I get the same, sans *Org*. The best thing you could do it to get OETool,
(Freeware), that has a button to open Full Screen and that's exactly what
you see. It does a lot more too.

Change ID's, Switch between Plain Text & HTML, Compact your folders and much
more.

Click View in a message window and make sure All Headers is not checked. It
won't really help much.
