Re: Windows Mail minimizes after I press to Send an email.

Make sure Windows Mail has all its defaults.
Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on "Windows
Mail". If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.

Thank you, I set all its defaults but it still has the same problem.

Re: Windows Mail minimizes after I press to Send an email.

Try this variation:
The following procedure will rewrite the default protocol
assignments in the registry:
Open the Default Programs applet, then click on "Set program
access and computer defaults." Expand the Custom selection, and
select Windows Mail. Click OK.

If no improvement, about the only thing left to do is to upgrade to
Windows Live Mail: http://download.live.com/wlmail
