forwarding from newsgroups
 
With my new PC I am unable (as in the past) to forward a post from a newsgroup (or even when it is on my harddrive) to someone in mail.

I get the message:
"You do not have a simple MAPI compatible mailer installed. Microsoft Outlook Express News cannot mail this message without a compatible mailer."

What do I need to do to make it possible to forward messages from newsgroups in e-mail?

Assuming MS Outlook is not your default Mail Client (i.e., Outlook Express
is):

1. http://www.oehelp.com/oedef.aspx; then...

If still no joy, see:

SendTo and E-mail Links Do Not Work Using Outlook Express as Default

Is MS Outlook is your default Mail Client, don't do any of the above but
post back to this thread.
