I am used to dig into the .prefs files to find and set some workspace settings.
Anyway I cannot find where are that ones :
1 Inbox - Show : Beginning of Message
2 Inbox - Show : Preview Pane on side, not at bottom
3 View - Display shortcuts - Contacts
As I did not find them in the policy documents, I with I could set them through managed settings ?
With these settings, my users will wake up with a workspace that rocks !
