Does it work if you just roll the wheel within the message list, without
holding the button down to drag the slider?

Messages won't reflow while the mouse button is down.

I should clarify, this has nothing to do with my mouse. I'm talking
about clicking and dragging the "thumb" on the scrollbar on the right
side of a listview (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrollbar). Most
listviews will scroll the contents, as you drag the mouse. Outlook
2007 does not do this.

Also, when resizing windows, most applications will "flow" the
contents within the window as it is being re-sized. The Outlook 2007
message window does not do this.

Years ago applications would purposely NOT refresh the screen until
the direct manipulation was finished due to performance issues. But
today with gigahertz processors and advanced graphic cards, this is no
longer a valid concern.

I was just wondering if I'm seeing this it's because I'm not the
Windows Vista Aero interface, or if Outlook 2007 does this on all
platforms.
