Making Yahoo.co.uk my default mail SP

In XP I just used to click on 'set default mail service' or something like
that. I selected Yahoo from the list of providers and wallop, it happened.
What do I do now? I cannot get Vista to to recognise Yahoo mail and each time
I respond to internet mail I get the Windows Mail window up.

You haven't specified whether you use Yahoo POP mail or Yahoo webmail.
If the latter, I don't know of any way to make it the default.

To get Yahoo! back in the mail clients listing, you need to install a MAPI plugin from Yahoo!
