Default Use Windows Mail as Send To default....


I have 5728 installed, along with Office 2007 B2TR, and even though I have
Windows Mail set as my default e-mail client, my Send To Mail shortcut keeps
insisting on using Outlook and forcing me to create a profile. There must
be a way to change the default Send To Mail Recipient behavior to use
Windows Mail instead of Outlook. For some reason, I just can't seem to get
it to do so on my configuration.

Try resetting WinMail as the default program via Control Panel | Default
Programs | Set defaults and see if that fixes it.

Thanks! That was way to easy. You'd think setting as default from within
the application itself would suffice, but I guess not. Perhaps something to
for MSFT to have a look at.

The unfortunate thing is that Outlook does this everytime it updates. See
