Preview Messages in Your Gmail Inbox

Ever compared Gmail and Yahoomail? You'll notice that there are a lot of differences and similarities but one thing that really bothers me is that I can't preview a message in Gmail before I open it completely. Unlike in the new Yahoomail, you can click a message and it will open in a new tab and you can continue in opening other messages you wish to read. Here's a simple but useful tool in Gmail.

Everything you need is right in Gmail and all you have to do is follow these steps below:

1. First of all you need to log-in to your account. After logging in, go the options menu by clicking a small circle at the upper rightmost part of your screen.

2. After clicking the button, a drop-down menu will appear. Here, select Mail settings.

3. At the Mail settings window, click on Labs.

4. In here, search for Preview Pane on the search tab and click on enable.

5. Now all you have to do now is go back to your inbox, click on the small button to the left and select the view you want (vertical or horizontal split).

6. And that's it, you can now preview your inbox and see other messages quickly.
