A user asks: “I no longer see the Subject, To, From and attachments fields on my emails.  I do not see this info even if I double click and open the email.  How do I get this info to always display?”

It sounds like you are not showing the header fields.

  • For the preview pane: in the View menu find Customize and look under Other settings. You can also right click on the gray border of the preview pane and choose the option to show the header.
  • On opened message: Other actions, Message header in Outlook 2007. It’s on the View menu of an opened message when using an older version.
