Dear Tj,
Actually, macOS has a split view on full screen (if you are on El
Capitan or above). To do what you want, I would do:
1. Open the message that you want to reply in a new window: File > Open
Message [CMD+O]
2. Reply to this message: Message > Reply… (or Forward, Redirect…)
3. Now, using your cursor, click on the green circle without releasing
(hold click) for about a second. Then you will see a blue rectangle
appearing behind that divides the screen in 2. Move your window to the
side of the screen that you want it to appear. This would push your
window in full screen but taking half of the screen space.
4. Then, on the other side, you will see multiple windows. Select the
window that corresponds to your open message. This will push it in full
screen to this side, so you will have both side by side.
You can see [here](https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204948) for an
overview of the feature from Apple.
I'm on Mojave, I think on Catalina a little popup will appear instead of
the blue rectangle to place the window, but they do basically the same
thing.
Hope this help!
Best,

I have been using full-screen mode more lately on my MacBook Air,
which led me to wonder if it is possible do something in Mailmate
which I would very much like, but I'm not sure if it can be done (in
any practical sense of the word).
When I am replying to an email, I like to have the compose window on
the right half of the screen, and the original message on the left
half of the screen. That way I can easily refer to things as needed.
Of course in full-screen mode, I get the compose window in
full-screen, and I'm not sure there's any practical way around that.
As far as I know, macOS does not have the same kind of "split screen"
that iPads have.
But I thought I'd mention it, just in case there _is_ a way to do that
which I had not discovered.
Thanks!
Tj
