| Guest | Clicking link in web page to send mail When I click a link on a web page to send an email I get an IE pop under window with another error window saying couldn't perform this operation because default mail client is not set properly? I have gone to programs in IE and set Windows Mail as default. what more must I do to click a link to send email? Thanks for the help, Rich |

| Guest | Re: Clicking link in web page to send mail I had that problem, too. Go to control panel/default programs/set default programs, select windows mail and click 'choose defaults for this program.' In the next window you should see the .eml--mailto--email link options. Make sure they are all selected. then click save.

| Guest | Re: Clicking link in web page to send mail Thanks for the reply but that was what I had done. What I did find while in default programs was on the bottom of the selections was Set program access and computer defaults and choose custom hit the down arrow and selected Windows Mail and OKed out of that and all is well now!
