    opening email in a maximized window

    I would like to have my email messages open in a maximized window when I
    double click on it in the preview pane. Where is the setting that will make
    this happen?



    Thanks, Jim Birke

    After you double click to open the message, *close all other windows*. Now,
    grab the corners of the window and drag it to full screen size. Close the
    window using File | Close, or File | Exit depending what program you're in.
    Windows will remember the last screen size used the next time you open the
    program.
