Vista - keyboard shortcut to windows mail?

The answer to this is possibly very simple,but i can`t see it.
on my keyboard i have shortcut buttons ,when i press e-mail it goes to my
yahoo email account page.
i want it to open windows mail.
in the keyboard set-up what address do i put in the email to get windows
mail and not yahoo mail come up?
thank-you.

This is a keyboard specific question. We don't know what keyboard you got.

Windows has similar features, you can set a key to start winmail, right
click on the All Programs menu - Properties - Shortcut Hotkey.

Check your owner's manual, call HP, or peruse their website
(support.hp.com). This is a proprietary feature, not a Windows
feature.

If this keyboard came with a HP computer, you should find an updated
keyboard driver for Vista under the available upgrades for your computer.

I have a HP Pavilion a1540n computer with a model 5187 keyboard and found
Vista drivers for the keyboard there.

If by "address" you mean the directory path on your hard drive,
you can find that out by right-clicking on Windows Mail in the
Start menu, select Properties. For most installations that will be
"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe"
