Win 7 Live Mail pop up

by 1oldad Feb 23, 2010 12:16PM PST

Each time I select to read a message from the Inbox mail there is a little popup which overlays the msg before the msg is opened which shows :
Date Received
Subject
Size
Folder

I can see in the msg it-self before opening,the Sender,date,Subject,folder,etc and I don't need this overlay, double notification even though it does fade out aftr several seconds

This is very irritating to have this little popup superimposed on the message before opening.

Is there any way to disable this popup?

Thanks in adance

Theme?

by jeff_windows_team Feb 24, 2010 2:39AM PST

I tried to find a setting for that but couldn't find one. I'm wondering if it has to do with the theme you are using. Try a different one and see if the pop-up goes away.

Unwanted Little pop ups disable

Ho Jeff

Just got the answer to the problem with help from Heidi in Dell Tech Team.
Gave her control of puter and she finally solved it

Heres the way to stop those litle popups in Live Mail:

Open your mail
Click on View
Click on Layout
Uncheck Reading Pane Mail.

and BINGO
