There's two things I want done with OE, and I don’t know how to do then: How do I set it up so that it starts automatically whenever I boot up Windows AND at the same time to be minimized form the start (to system tray, not just to taskbar)? You know, so it just checks mail periodically and pops out a "new message" window when there is any, I know it can be done because I saw it at some guy's computer, and he had the same Win/MSO version I have, but I didn't remember to ask him back then. Any suggestions?

Well, to have it run automatically at system startup you just need to put a shortcut to it in the "Startup" menu folder (under "Programs"). But to have it minimized form the start, I'm not certain. You should try searching through Tools / Options … to see if there's something called "minimize to tray". Then you'll need to edit the taskbar properties and hope that there's an option to minimize automatically. I know this is vague, but I can't speak with more precision because I'm not using Outlook myself ATM, sorry.
