I like to open unread emails in a new window vs the email window. It sometimes works by double clicking but not very often. Is there a trick I'm missing?

That is not a solution! It is just extra work!
I want emails to always open in an external window. Just add the setting!
I just hate your recent changes! Outlook has lost ALL appeal that remained.

I find the double click works, but only if the clicks are lightening fast. Is there a way to reduce the sensitivity so i can take fractionally longer with the double click. I think this is what is causing everybody's issues.
