Is there anyway (reg hack, utils, etc) that I can minimize Outlook Express 6 (came packaged with windows XP) to the system tray? I've downloaded Out Tray and Minimizer 1.4 and they lock my system up. I really would like a registry setting for it as I think that it would work the best. Thanks in advance.

Minimizing Outlook Express to the system tray.

Here is a link for how to with Outlook 2002
If you are in an experimentin' mood look at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0
(if using OE 6 try 6.0 rather than 5.0)
Create a new key - Preferences
Create a new REG_DWORD value under Preferences named MinToTray
Set the value to 1
If that doesn't work you might try the same directly under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Outlook Express
Whatever you do it's on your head! I'm just suggesting some possible hacks not recommending them.
Have fun!
The two rules for success are:
