Why did my outlook inbox view change?

For anyone else who finds this solution does not solve the view problem, try this:

Go to the View ribbon
Click Change View and select Manage Views
Select Compact from the table and click Modify
Click Other Settings
Now look toward the bottom of the Other Settings box for the section labeled Other Options
If the box next to “Use compact layout with widths smaller than ” is checked, try changing the number to 200 or more (I think the default is 125)., and more items.

By default Outlook will change the way the message list is viewed depending on the width of the window / list.
