I've selected to hide the menu bar from kmeleon preferences. Now its gone and I can't find how to show it back. I thought there would be a button or something to click at to show the menu bar, but there is nothing.

How do I show my menu bar please?

Thank God, I did find a way.
Clicking F2 brought up preferences windows, and from there, I deselected the 'hide menu bar' option.

But how come it can be hidden without any button to access it? is there a hotkey or something to show the menu bar?

You found the hotkey F2 already.

The option is used with skins that have a special button.

Or after un-comenting by deleting the little crosses before the lines at this place of Phoenity skin.

# Options{
# ID_PREFERENCES|Compact Menu
# View Preferences. Right-click to view Compact Menu.
# mainbarhot.bmp[10]
# mainbarcold.bmp[10]
# mainbarcold.bmp[10]
# }

The button will give You this menu at right click. I use German menues.

If you're using v1.5 and above you can just drag the main bar onto the same line as the menu bar and then slide it all the way over(or double-click it's left edge) covering the menu items. Then all that'll be visible on the menu bar is a little arrow button that when clicked shows a vertical compact menu.

How can I get my reply button back in windows mail?

windows mail should be like outlook express.
right click anywhere on your toolbar and select 'customise' from the popup menu


a dialog will open to add or remove buttons, you should find the missing reply button on the left pane..select it and click the add button


now it will move to the right pane..click close and it will appear on your toolbar
