Windows Live Mail Command Line Parameters

Asked By Doug

Would someone please point me to a comprehensive list of the command line
parameters that can be used in shortcuts after:
Examples:
/mail
/news
/mailurl:%1
but I feel there must be a whole lot more and no amount of googling has
revealed them.

You've already posted the two that most people use
/mail
/news

If Outlook is installed and one wishes to use the WLM included Mail Icon(lower left of folder pane) when in news mode to open
Outlook
/outnews


Note: /mailurl:%1 performs the same as /mail or not using a command line parameter

BTW that thread had a web interface Message-ID in it
so I was able to check for its  &tid= explicitly.  it is gone.

Oh but apparently I have maligned Google Groups unjustly.
