Since I am left-handed and use the mouse with my left hand, I have grown
accustom to using Ctrl-Ins for Copy, Shift-Ins for paste, and
Shift-Delete for Cut.

While in an opened message in Outlook 2007, I can use these key
combinations (due to an editor option in mail format tab of the options
dialog), but in the preview pane, I am not able to do it.

Is there some way to enable these key combinations in the preview pane
of Outlook 2007?

While I'm right-handed, at work I use my mouse with my left hand, since it's
more convenient in terms of real estate on my desk. I've simply swapped the
mouse buttons so that "left click" is done with my index finger and
"right-click" with my second finger, just as I use the mouse with my right
hand at home. I tend to refer to "left click" more as "mouse button one",
since that it independent of handedness. It's quite convenient to use the
mouse that way.

I don't have an answer for this, since I've not investigated. I've never
had a need.
