I've tried several areas on my email page, but, there's no place that shows the preview pane so that I can turn it off. It bothers my eyes to have it, & then open up email at the top.

I finally found the place to fix it. I was looking under the separate view option, instead of in the settings. Thanks for your help. Not sure why the F8 wasn't working, I've used it before, & it worked fine.
