Every day you’re clicking through your Outlook inbox. Sure, there are many shortcuts which relieves your mouse but who knows them all inside out? However, we found a small trick that takes you quickly and easily through your e-mail messages without scrolling via mouse.

By using the space bar, you can scroll pages on pages of your e-mails in the reading pane. Are you at the end of a message, Outlook jumps automatically to the beginning of the next e-mail in your inbox. In this way you can read the whole inbox without using your mouse. This trick works only in the reading pane. If you open your e-mail, it won’t work.

It doesn’t work anyway? Then you haven’t activated the right setting. Go in Outlook to Tools – Options – Other – Reading pane. Highlight Single key reading using space bar.
