Is it possible to display the first 3 lines (or so) of each message in the message list? I find this a VERY useful feature in Outlook on my phone in determining message priorities. It is also important that in doing this each message is not automatically marked as read (like the preview pane does). The preview pan option also only displays one message at a time which is not what I need.

If this feature is not available PLEASE consider adding it. It is really becoming a deal breaker for me.
