HELP: Default Mail Handler
I have googled making outlook (2000) my default mail handler and
almost everything tells me to open I.E. and use internet options to change my default programs. The only problem is, when I do this, outlook does not appear in the list of availble programmes to make default. How can I make outlook default rather than Windows Mail (Vista) as t present? I've even tried re-installing but to no avail. Incidentally I'm using a user, rather than administrator account but also have an admin account. The administrator account already seems to have outlook as its default. TIA. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access

HELP: Default Mail Handler
You know Outlook 2000 is not fully supported on Windows Vista, right?
Solving this issue most likely will reveal another one soon and there is no guarantee that any fix will be a permanent fix. Anyway, try starting Outlook with the /CheckClient switch. You may need to run this from an elevated prompt. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- wrote in message ...
