Why does a little screen pop up and say "Windows Mail can Compact the
Message Store? How do I stop that from happening? It only happens after I
send a message. What really needs to be fixed?

Nothing needs fixing. You need to allow the compaction to occur.

The database gets wasted space in it and needs to be compacted to get rid of
it so it will run faster, so allow the process to continue and you won't get
prompted again for 100 closings of WinMail.
