Default Importing eml files and Web Browsing in Outlook

Outlook cannot read .eml files. What export options does WLM have that are compatible with Outlook?

As for Outlook as a web browser, it is not one nor should be used as one. If you are asking how to make FF the default browser when links are clicked in Outlook, Control Panel-Add/Remove Programs-Set Program Access and Default.

After furious head scratching, Urbane Tiger asked:

| How can I import ".eml" files into Outlook 2007, this is the format
| in which the Windows Live Mail client keeps mail messages.
|
| Can I get Outlook to bring up it's browser when I click on a link in
| a mail item. My default browser is Firefox, and that's not going to
| change.
|
| Ideally I'd like the built in browser (which I appreciate is in fact
| the IE engine) be used, with an option via the context menu to open
| the link in the default browser, or better yet a menu of the
| installed browsers - which in my case would be IE8, Firefox3,
| Opera9.5 and Maxthon2.1.2.
