This started a few days ago. With Internet Explorer and Chrome the reading pane shows up below the inbox. With Firefox It shows up in a narrow pane to the right of the inbox.

I installed version 9.0, and the same problem exists. I didn't expect it to help, and it didn't. I trust that there was no reason you thought it would work other that try a new version and hope the problem goes away.
