I'm not a C# programmer, but I do know that if you want to display a new message using WordMail as the editor (a) the user must already have WordMail set as the editor and (b) you'd use standard Outlook automation code (Application.CreateItem, MailItem.Display) from the LinkLabel's LinkClicked event handler.
