Nov 26, 2015 - I have the same problem in Outlook 2011 for Mac; I think this configuration. Appear in in 'reading pane' but do not render in the message list. Under the Reading email section, click the Reading pane option. Select the Right or Bottom option, depending on where you want the Reading pane, and click the Save button. Above is an example image of what the Outlook.com e-mail Reading pane looks like when enabled.

If you are using On Menus tab, click View menu to bring up the drop-down menu, and the Reading Pane is below the To-Do Bar. You can turn off or make a setting to the reading pane or change the location of Reading Pane from the sub-menu. See Fig.1: Fig.1 Click Options, there appears the Reading Pane window. Here you can make some setting to Reading Pane options, such as Mark items as read when viewed in the Reading Pane, Mark item as read when selection changes and Single key reading using space bar. Fig.2 If you are not using Open Microsoft Outlook 2010/2013, on the View tab, the Reading Pane is placed at the second place of the Layout group.

If you use Conversation View in Microsoft Outlook 2016, there might be a time when you’ll want to scroll through emails in a folder using your keyboard’s arrow keys instead of pointing and clicking with a mouse. Depending on your settings, when you try to scroll using your arrow keys, the Reading Pane might just show an empty white space instead of loading the email.

If you press the Enter key, the message will display. In my case, I wanted the email to display in the Reading Pane as soon as I used the arrow to highlight the next message.

Luckily, the fix is fairly simple. How To Fix Keyboard Scrolling You can reference the screenshot above with these instructions: • In Outlook 2016, go to File > Options • Click on Mail in the left pane • Scroll down to the Other section at the bottom • Uncheck the box for “ Don’t automatically expand conversations when using the keyboard to change messages“ • Click OK Other Reading Pane Options While you’re in the Mail section of Outlook Options, you can also click on the Reading Pane button to open some other options for the Reading Pane. As you can see from the screenshot above, you can change when an email gets marked as read along with a few other options.
