In Mail preferences under view there is a check box for classic view.
If you check this you are in classic view.
If you uncheck it you will be in the default modern view.

Subject: Re: [Mac-access]: question about mail app.
It sounds like you are in Classic View, which I personally have never
like and I have always preferred the standard modern view which will
deliver what you want.
In standard modern view as you simply cursor down the message list,
with the default preview turned on, the message sender subject and the
first five lines of the email is automatically read out for you. This
is enough for me to normally decide if I need to press the delete key
without even having to open the message.
In fact I can normally rely upon Preview rather than having to open messages
I think I may have set preview up to read the maximum as I really like
this feature and find it a time saver.
As I say
you do not have to listen to all of it just press delete or continue
cursoing down to next message.
If I need to read the whole message I press VO J to read it and then VO
J to jump back to the message and continue cursoring down.
Since Yosemite you sometines have to press VO J 3 times on the first
message you try to read.
The only real problem I have with Mail is the lack of a page down
function for navigating long text emails.
David Griffith
The important thing to remember when moving down any table is to
interact first.
five lines of the email are read to me automatically - this is usually
then VO J to have the mail read to me wiOn 25/01/2015 04:25, michael's
