If your Reading Pane is not displayed right now, go to View. In the Layout group, click the drop-down for Reading Pane and choose Show on the Right to see it. The cool thing about the Reading Pane is that, while the Reading Pane is displayed, I have access to most of the tools I would have if I had this message opened, but I don't ever have to open it. I don't have to open this one, then close it, open the next one, and then close it. I can simply select a message in my information viewer and work with it…
