A pane after the list of email pane and before the message content pane has appeared that has its own slider bar and contains message thread information. How can I eliminate this space hog so I just have 2 panes, one with the list of emails and one with the message?

I finally discovered the problem. ALL was checked under View/Headers. Checking NORMAL corrected the problem and removed the thread pane from the center.
