when I click on a highlighted email address, a message appears saying
"operation cannot be performed because default mail client is not installed
properly"

Any idea's?
 
Click Start, select Default Programs
Click Set program access and computer defaults
Click Custom, and select Windows Mail
Click OK

Then, follow these steps:

Click Set your default programs
Select your mail client from the list
Click Set this program as default
Click OK
