I'm sure there's another way to get there, but I always just open
internet explorer, got to Tools - Internet Options - Programs(tab) -
Change e-mail to outlook in the pulldown.

Configure your Outlook email accounts. Then, under Control Panel-Internet
Options-Programs tab, make Outlook your default mail program as well as
contacts.
