Title: Email Preference
Post by: Peter on January 28, 2011, 11:08:54 AM

I prefer to use Outlook Express for all my emails, but whenever I click an email address link on a website it always opens in Outlook, if I cut and paste the email address I can then use it on OE.

Is there a way to set my preference for Outlook Express?

Regards,
Peter

Default programs. Use help to find it.
Exactly how/where you set it depends on which version of Windows (XP?) and which browser you use.

I think Peter has XP

Control panel>add or remove programs>set program defaults> expand the "custom" tab and in there select your desired default email client....click ok all the way out of that.

That should do the trick.  :)

Done and dusted, thank you both.
