It is in the Mail Preferences that you need to change the Header view to None. When in Mail: 1. Press cmd-comma to open your Preferences. 2. Interact with the Toolbar. 3. Select the Viewing tab. 4. Mail will automatically stop interacting with the toolbar and move you to the Header View pop-up. 4. Use VO-space to change it from Default to None. 5. close your Preferences window. If you wish to have a specific message display the Header after setting things this way, simply press cmd-shift-h and the long Header info will appear for that message. Later...
