Minimizing it to a system tray icon is NOT exiting the application. You
don't mention just HOW you are closing WLM, like if you are using the
File -> Exit/Close menu or if you are just clicking the "X" titlebar
button. You also don't mention if you have the option enabled (if it
exists in that e-mail client) to minimize it to a tray icon on close.
Closing an application's window (using the "X" titlebar button) does not
necessarily exit the application.
