Default Mail Client

[Alan J. Steinberg]

My XP O/S presents a message that I have not set up a
default mail client even though I have. It urges me to
use Outlook which I don't. How can I get rid of theis
message that btw requires 3 "o.k.'s" to blow away each
time I boot???
thanks

Assuming that you're using Outlook Express, click Start, Run and enter
MSIMN.EXE /REG Then go to Control Panel, Internet Options, Programs and
ensure that Outlook Express is selected. You can also use the Reset Web
Settings button to ensure that everything is back to the "default".

I don't use Outlook or Outlook Express. I use Eudora. I
want to get rid of the error message. Could you please
elaborate? Thanks

Alan,

Go to Control Panel, Internet Options, Programs, and make sure that Eudora
is set as the default e-mail client. Outside of that, check Eudora's site
for more options, or contact their tech support.
