First choose Column Layout from the view menu, then right click in the area of the column labels and select "From".

Thank you Randall.

I thought I was going crazy. Turns out there is an option under View called "Use Column Layout" which, when checked, gives you two columns—Subject and Date. That's it. No way to add a column. When you uncheck it, you get the sender's name in bold type, the subject, the first line of text and the date. Why would anyone want to "Use Column Layout"?

Randall,

Sorry, I misread your email. Yes, the right-click is the trick. Thanks.
