was looking for a way to Toggle Mail.app's preview pane from the menu or keyboard. The link gives instructions of what needs to be done. Now I just need to get it to work on Tiger w/o Quicksilver

update
I used Mail Act-On with a specific Rule to accomplish what I want.

Since rules can trigger AppleScript, and I found the following script to toggle the preview pane, I associated the script to a rule and used Act-On to fire of that rule when I hit a specific key.

tell application "Mail"
repeat with thisViewer in (every message viewer)
if (window of thisViewer) is window 0 then exit repeat
end repeat
tell thisViewer
if preview pane is visible then
set preview pane is visible to false
else
set preview pane is visible to true
end if
end tell
end tell
