Windows Live Mail in Windows 7
In Windows 7 you can minimize the app window but not hide it in the system tray. The Hide window when minimized menu entry is missing from the context menu and all you have is the window icon taking up space in your taskbar.

How to Add the Context Menu Entry Back
Right click on the program shortcut(s) and select properties.
 When the properties window opens click on the compatibility tab and enable the Run this program in compatibility mode for setting. Choose Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) from the drop-down menu and click OK.
 Once you have restarted Windows Live Mail you will have access to the Hide window when minimized menu entry again.
 And just like that your taskbar is clear again when Windows Live Mail is minimized.
 If you have wanted the ability to minimize Windows Live Mail to the system tray in Windows 7 then this little tweak will fix the problem.
