That's the way I'd go with it since he's just used Excel to open Microsoft
Mail and hasn't actually used it to create an object that he can control any
further within Excel.

I would like another macro to minimize the app on opening and close it after

Why bother with a macro? Use keyboard shortcuts.
Alt-Spacebar-N will minimize the app.
Alt-F4 will close the app.
