when creating a new mail, the window opens as a single line at the bottom
of
the outlook express window, and I have to drag the window to make it
larger(maximise/minimise button does not work). How do I get outlook
express
to open a separate window when I want to create a new mail?

open the new mailright click on its button in the task barselect
'move'use the keyboard arrows to get it into the middle of the screenclick
to releasenow resize the window with your mouse on its edgesclose it. When
you open a new mail it should open in the place you just closed it and at
the same size.
