Tim, I wrote a Apple Script two or three OS versions ago, that would consistently move the splitter to 100% in Mail. I can provide it to you if you would like to test it and see if it still works. It does require the Accessibility permissions in System Settings. Best wishes, Jo

Hi, As mentioned, dragging with VO will not usually do what you are wanting it to do. You actually want the Horizontal Splitter to be at 100%, not 0%. You will know that the Preview Pane is gone by selecting a message, then stopping Interaction with everything, then using VO-right to move thr
