Why in the world are you posting about this in a WinXP newsgroup?
Forward to Vista Mail newsgroup via crosspost.

When you were in Default Programs, did you make sure that, in addition to
being the default program, Windows Mail has all its defaults?

Mish, Windows Mail can be the default email client, yet not have all
applicable protocols assigned to it. To do so:
Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on "Windows
Mail". If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
