Preview pane in email- no longer showing

I had set the preview pane for 3 lines, long time ago, but not able to show it now. Instructions under "viewing" don't do it.

Got it! At first I didn't know what you meant by "lower resolution on the Display" - but if you meant to allow only 5 or 6 messages, for example, instead of 20 (using the full screen), then it worked. The preview pane doesn't work if I've already filled the screen with the full number of 'headers' - there's no space left on my screen for preview! Duh. (if all that makes any sense to you at all!). THANKS! Appreciate your help!
