Vista - Re: Address book email no longer opens full email page

[Forwarded to Vista Mail newsgroup via crosspost]

1. Close any open Message windows.

2. Open such a New Message window | "Grab" the opposing corners of the small
window and "drag" them to fill the screen (or other desired size) but do NOT
maximize the window | Close the resized window via File | Close.

The resized (not maximized) window must be the last window closede for its
size to be remembered.

A Windows Mail Message window will never open maximized by default.

Thanks...that worked just great. These fixes seem so simple, but no amount
of searching turned anything up. I probably didn't use the correct
description of my problem. Rich
