How do I set up outlook express so that messages do open unless I open them.

I have just reinstalled Win XP.
It is so long since I set up outlook express, that I have forgotten
how to set it up so that messages do not open themselves. They
do not unless I open them. That way I can delete them without
even opening them.

TIA,

Nev.

View | Layout. Uncheck the Preview Pane. Best choice is to right click on
the Toolbar | Customize and add the Preview Pane button so you can switch
back and forth easily.
