Trying to use Outlook for mail insted of Outlook Express
Posted by billyboy on September 7th, 2003


I set Outlook as my default mail program, NOT Outlook Express, but my mail
still keeps going to OE. Can anyone help?

Tell OE not to download email messages: Tools|Options - General tab. In the
area "Send/Receive Messages," un-check "Check for new messages every x
minute(s)"

HTH,

Hello,
This is very easy to correct.
Start Outlook Express. If you are not prompted to allow it to be the default
e-mail client,
go to tools | Options and make it the default.
Close Outlook Express and Start Outlook, it will immediately tell you it is
not the default e-mail
program and ask you if you would like it to be the default. Answer YES!
Problem Solved.
