is there a script, tweak, or application that allows apple mail to open at login without the page maximizing? i'd like mail to check for new messages after restarting but without taking up the whole screen.

thanks!

All apps open their initial windows at the size they were at when they were quit. Simply un-maximize the Mail window, quit the program, and start it again manually to make sure the size is right. Then when it is started as a login item, it should be that size.

yeah, i'm doing that right now steve. i was just curious if there was a way to have it automatically minimized (i.e. running without any window open) when it opens at login, kind of like safari.

The check box in System Preferences, Accounts, Login Items is supposed to hide programs but it doesn't seem to work with Mail.
