Notes

You can quickly see more buttons or folders by pointing to the horizontal splitter bar between the folders and the buttons, and then dragging the bar up or down when the pointer turns into the double-headed arrow . If you drag the horizontal splitter bar to the bottom of the Navigation Pane, then all the large buttons will convert to small buttons and display in a single row of icons at the bottom of the Navigation Pane.
To maximize the folder pane space, drag the horizontal splitter bar to the bottom of the Navigation Pane, and then use the small buttons to switch folder panes.
To see all your folders, and not just your e-mail folders, change the Folder List button into a large button, and then either move it above the Mail button or remove the Mail button from the Navigation Pane.
