I have separate Outlook Express and Outlook email accounts with Outlook
Express as the default. They each have their own email address. When I
email photos I right click on the photo then click to make smaller to
email. When I do that Outlook Express is always the account that the photos
go out on and I send them out. That is until today. For some reason now
when I do the above to send photos Outlook has taken over and I don't know
why or how to fix the problem. In checking "Email accounts" in Outlook I
see that it is the default but I can not figure out how to "undefault" it.
Can anyone help.
 
Disregard. I found the problem. I had lost the Default setting on Outlook
Express. I checked that and it came back as my default email account.

Whenever you have Outlook on a system and you receive an Outlook update from
Windows Update, the update will make Outlook the default mail client. Start
Internet Explorer and click Tools>Internet Options>Programs. Select the mail
client you want as default there.
