I'd like to be able to open Windows Mail from an icon on the toolbar of IE
7. But when I add the icon included in the customize list, it gives me a message that Outlet Express cannot be opened (obviously). Strange that Microsoft's latest browser doesn't support Microsoft's latest email program. Is there a way to program the button to open Windows Mail? Is there also a way to add such a button to Firefox? |

That's weird. Try making Windows Mail default under Control Panel | Default

That worked; thanks. Not sure why it wasn't the default already since it's
a brand new machine with Vista and IE 7 pre-installed. "Steve Cochran" wrote in message ... That's weird.
