A Hidden Email Gem ...

Greeting Folks!

I come with more good news. A whole bunch of months ago, I added a beautiful little time saver to email. Unfortunately, I tucked it away, defaulted to off... and forget to announce it really anywhere.

The good news is ... I remembered all of this tonight! While some of you may have found it on your own, here it is:

From your "Email", click to the Options tab. On that page, look for:
          MouseOver Subject Show Preview

I suggest clicking to turn it on. It does what you might expect -- that is, it shows you a preview of your email message when you mouse over its subject line in the email list; no clicking preview. When you move off the subject, the preview disappears.

The feature is defaulted to off because I didn't want to overload the servers with email previews without testing it more, and then I forgot about it.

... Or don't turn it on. It's up to you! But I find it makes email browsing much more graceful and enjoyable. I apologize for forgetting about it for so long.

(By the way, this might also be a good time to consider if you're showing enough emails per page. If you find yourself going from page to page in email looking for things, consider upping your "Per Page" amount. The maximum is 200.)

Enjoy!
