Opening a saved EML file does Not use the default mail program. The
default mail program only applies when another program (e.g. your web
browser) wants to send a new message.

You need to fix the Windows File Association for EML files.

If the abbreviated command in the above article doesn't work,
then try: Start, Run and enter the following (with the quotation marks):
"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /reg

I am having problems keeping Outlook Express set as my default email
under
"Set Program Access & Default (SPAD)". Every time I open a saved email
(example from "My Documents"), Windows Live Mail (WLM) opens it. I
continually go into "SPAD" and recheck Outlook Express in 'Custom' and
unchecked "Enable Access to this program" for WLM. However, WLM still
opens
saved emails.
Under "SPAD" the Microsoft area shows: Email: Enable access to Outlook
Express & WLM.
Non-Microsoft shows: Email: WLM / Enable: WLM / Remove access:
Outlook
Express
Custom shows: Use default email / Use my current email program /
enable
access to Outlook Exp. Again I continually click on make Outlook Exp
my
default and it makes the changes but WLM continues.

In Outlook Express / Options / General Tab / Default Messaging
Programs,
"this application is the default mail handler / the button "Make
Default" is
greyed out and can not be clicked.
How do I keep Outlook Express as my default email?
