Coming from the "Who's Got Mail" department, Lockergnomie Mike Saul discovered that change is good. You may still be in the process of finding the right mail client for your needs. If you're frustrated with the lack of functionality, then switching to a newer (or possibly older) program may be worth your while. However, you'll need to "notify" your browser of this change. In IE, select 'Tools' then 'Internet Options.' Flip to the Programs tab (if it exists in your version). At this point, you're able to select a default (installed) mail client. Failing to do so may cause errors (or non-desired programs to launch) when you click on any 'mailto' hyperlink.
