Some questions on Discussion Board and RSS client support in IE

I am using Discussion Board in a SharePoint 2010 site. I do not access to the code using Visual Studio 2010.
I can only make out-of-box changes or at the max. I can use SharePoint designer.
Following are my questions -
1. When I reply to a created discussion, the Body field in the form has the previously replied text by default.
I don't want that to be visible. Any ideas what should be done?
2. I know for the fact that the Body and Title columns cannot be removed from the List columns but can I don't want to see the Body TextArea in the form while creating a new object. What should I do ? Second part of this question, is it possible to make this TextArea into a one-line Textfield ?
3. In the Flat view of my DIscussion board when I added some additional columns like Product, Issue they are seen on the extreme right side of the view. It looks really shabby. Can I make the columns visible horizontally below the title ? Any other possibilities to improve the look ?
4. When I click on any RSS icon in Firefox, it gives me an option to add the feed in Microsoft Outlook but in Internet Explorer 8 the feed just gets added in the browser. Does IE not support adding the RSS feed directly into Microsoft Outlook client ?
5. Why is the Incoming E-Mail setting not enabled under Communications group in List Settings ?

1-3. Do you also have acces to InfoPath Designer? I would use that one to make changes to the forms and views if you don't want to access code:
4. Of course you can have your feeds in Outlook 2010, this works. But I don't know why the browser is default. Maybe they rather want you to use the connect to outlook option?
5. Can you check if Incoming E-mail has been configured or that you have enough permissions (Manage Lists permissions)?

@Expiscornovus
Thank you so much for your prompt answer.
For question 1-3, Infopath Designer works with all Lists but not Discussion Boards and Calendars.
Check this link for reference - Here.
I found one article which shows how to modify forms with SharePoint designer - Here.
Your comments are welcome.

How do I modify the NewForm.aspx while adding a reply in Discussion replies ?
When I reply to a created discussion, the Body field in the form has the previously replied text by default.
I don't want that to be visible. Any ideas what should be done?
Based on what 'Expiscornovus' suggested above, I tried doing the same with Designer but was not successful.
