Default Attaching Pictures to New Mail Window

Michael, I tried your two suggestions and neither helped. Any other ideas?

Try selecting a single picture, then the "e-mail this ...". Does that
work? If so, it may be an issue of too much data.

If you still have problems, then in Windows XP: Control Panel,
Add/Remove Programs, Set Program Access and Defaults, Email. Select
Outlook Express as your default mail program, even if it looks like it
already is.

Michael, the new mail window is not open.

Step1. I am in My Pictures.
Step 2. I select the folder of pictures that I want to e-mail.
Step 3. On the left side of the My Pictures Window, I click on
"E-mail this
folders pictures.
Step 4. The software asks me if I want to "Make all the pictures
smaller."
I click on OK.
Step 5. The software makes the pictures smaller and then opens a new
mail
with the pictures attached. (The new mail window does not open.)
Step 6. I fill in all appropriate blanks, To, Subject and desired
text.

After clicking Ok, I am getting a display that says, " Either there is
no
default mail client or the mail client cannot fulfill the messaging
request.
Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
I tried
Frank Saunders' suggestions but I did not mess with the registry.
That is
beyond my expertise

If so what steps are you performing and what happens? (i.e. are you
using Insert, File Attachment, or drag and drop).

You specifically mention "When in My Pictures". Are you able to do
this
OK from other folders?

If the new mail window has not been opened and you want to select a
picture and Right click Send to Mail Recipient doesn't work, see
Frank's
reply.

When in My Pictures, my system will not allow me to attach pictures
to
new
mail window. My default mail is OE6.
