When I'm in Outlook Express and want to start a new email I click on "New Mail" and it always open in "Normal Window", which is a small window at the bottom of the screen. Is their any way to get it to open in Maximum?

I don't believe you can. When you maximize the window it is for that instance only. The best you can do is resize the window large enough to your liking and it will keep those dimensions on subsequent messages. joegz

Yes you can.
Close all open emails.
Create a new mail, just 1 !
Resize it to about the max of you screen.
Double-click the Title bar to maximize and close it.
Create a new one, it should be maximized now.
If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, excpect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.

That would work in Outlook but not Outlook Express. joegz

Strange, mine does, just tested it again. If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, excpect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.
