Previewing Shortcuts to Outlook items

I use a program called Linker to create URLs to messages stored in an Outlook pst file. Within a windows folder if I create a new windows shortcut with the target being the outlook message then I end up with a windows shortcut of the form :

[{000214A0-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
Prop3=19,0
[InternetShortcut]
URL=outlook:0000000013EC15CBE0CEDE4486917C5B69C3EE3724012609
IDList=

If I click that shortcut from within a windows folder it opens the Outlook message within Outlook, which is very useful as I can keep related documents and emails together in the same place.

My question is this : the preview pane within dopus will not preview this shortcut; instead what it does is to open it. Is there a way I can preview the outlook message without it opening?

Probably not, although Opus just acts as a container for the viewers involved in this (Internet Explorer and the Outlook/email preview handlers, in this case), so there may be a way to make them do that which I'm not aware of.
