I assume you mean using the window manager's maximize functions?  I'll take
a quite look.  The author will have a new version shortly, not sure if that is
something addressed.  This could also be due to the particular Tk geometry 
manager that was used.
I also may have introduced some sizing bugs in trying to make the apps fit
on a VGA-sized X window.

I'll look into the multipart bug.  It could be because of my hacked mmencode
program.
The online/offline  problem might be more of a long term effort.   
For any budding code tweakers out there, consider adopting vmail.  It's a 
fairly large app with lots of features which could use polishing.  I tried
to bring it up to speed just to send/read simple text messages, and did
some work on the newsreader side.  An alternative would be to use 
other mail & news programs.  There use to be a TkMail that was pure Tcl,
later versions made use of Perl for some things, and it aslo grew into
TkRat, a full featured mail agent, but uses extensive amount of C extensions.
Vmail docs said some of it came from TkMail also.
