Alexander, my Outlook Express is set to show a normal window for both the message lists and the message windows. So can't duplicate this here, sorry. Even if I could, I wouldn't know how to resolve it.

Hi all, Express 6 on an Acer Laptop, with Supernova 8.01. In Outlook Express the list of messages in each folder is maximised, but when I open a message to read it, it opens a minimised window. I thought the answer to my problem was in Windows Folder options, but I can not find it there. Please can someone remind me where to look to solve this issue. Thank you in advance.
