Receiving Email: Reading Email Messages
There are two ways to view email using the ZWC: Conversation view and Message view. Both views can use the Reading pane.
How do I shrink and enlarge the Reading pane?
How do I open and close the Reading pane?
How do I permanently change my view?
What is Conversation view? 
Conversation view displays your messages grouped by subject, as shown below. Because all messages in a conversation have the same subject, the subject displays only once in the conversation view pane. All messages related to the conversation are displayed, even if they are stored in different folders.
The number of messages in the conversation is displayed in parentheses in the Size column (after the subject). Each conversation consists of the original message and all replies. Conversations containing unread messages are shown in bold.

What is the Reading pane?
The Reading pane is the area below the messages in your Inbox.
