Side Preview Panel in Mail not appearing

I've tried all previous suggestions to get my side preview panel to "pop" open when I move my curser to the left, but I still can't get it to appear. I just updated to Catalina 10.15.7. I want to see a preview of my emails before opening them. I used to be able to, but now it's gone.

Okay I found the issue. I had "Always" set for "Show scroll bars:" in System Preferences > General. As soon as I switched it to "When scrolling", the left pointing cursor was available again and I could drag open the side preview.
