Hi: I recently had to downgrade to an old CRT monitor from my wide-screen LCD. Now, when I click on Send/Receive in Window Mail the dialog box that pops up displaying the progress of the process is halfway off the screen to the right. I can't grab the window to move it back towards the center of the display and can't find a way in Windows Mail to reposition it. I thought that this thread "Screen resolution change also changed Windows Mail in Windows Mail" at http://tinyurl.com/56nt7o had the answer when Sinner replied: "After it closes, on the Status bar, double click the "New mail" or "No new messages" icons. That should bring the send/receive dialog back up so that you can manipulate it." Only thing is, I have no "Status bar" at the top of the screen - the only options are Tools bar, View bar, Search bar - and no icons for "New mail" or "No new messages". These icons aren't even available to me in the customization process. What am I doing wrong here, and/or what do I need to do to get this window re-positioned? TIA Tom Young |

The "Status Bar" is usually the strip at the bottom of the window. I believe you can accomplish this by double clicking to the right of the "Working Online/Offline" message.

Thanks, that did it. You'd think something like this would show up somewhere in the Windows Mail "Help" info, but I never found it.
