How do I make a section start on a right hand page?

My document has 'front matter' (title page, table of contents, etc) before
the main body of the document. When recipients print the document
double-sided, I want the main text to begin on a right-hand page. I inserted
a section break between the front matter and the main text and formatted the
main text to begin on an odd page. Sure enough, the page numbering of the
main text begins at '1', as intended, but the first page prints on the next
available page, which happens to be a left-hand page. How can I ensure page
1 of the main text prints on a right-hand page? (I'm using Word 2003.)

In File | Page Setup, enable "Mirror margins" and/or "Different odd and
even"; this makes Word add filler pages appropriately.
