This is helpful but not exactly what I was after.  Imagine, for
example, the Microsoft Office toolbar.  I haven't used it myself for a
while but as I recall, when you chose to use it the space it occupied
became unavailable for other applications.  Thus, if you maximised a
window's size using the maximise button the window's border would
stretch to the limits imposed by the screen boundaries and the edges
of the Window's Taskbar, the Office taskbar and so on...  This is the
same effect I was hoping to achieve with the Bat's mail-ticker.  If it
isn't possible, so be it but I thought it was worth to ask...

Thanks for the answer on this.  Now I know how TB! works with regard
to address completion I can better adapt my behaviour to suit.
(...because it's still necessary to adapt to software rather than
vice versa isn't it!...)

Cheers,

Mark
