On ms-windows you probably want to send mail directly through the SMTP
server of your ISP -- something like this:
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.example.com")

W3 has some limitations, one them is that it does not always deal
graciously with malformed HTML (which is often the case with HTML
email).
AFAIK, there's no easy way to fix it in Gnus 5.9. But the next version
will let you choose an alternative way to render HTML in Gnus, such as
Lynx, w3m or Links.

You can specify the initial size of a new frame in
`default-frame-alist'.
Also, I think there's some specific way to maximize under ms-windows,
see the Emacs on Windows FAQ for details
<http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq.html>.
You could add that function to `gnus-started-hook'.
