Default Default email problem

Hi

From when I go to email a picture from MyDocuments\MyPictures using the
options on the File and Folder task bar, it does not open OE but another
email program.

I have checked to see that OE is the default, and the other program isn't,
yet when I try to email it opens the other email program.

How can I get it to use OE


Thanks

See this to be sure OE is set as the default mail client.

Hi

I did as you said but it hasn't fixed the problem
OE is listed as the default but when I go to email a picture from
MyDocuments\MyPictures using the options on the File and Folder task bar, it
does not open OE but another email program.

Thanks

Have you tried UNINSTALLING the "other" email program if you don't actually
use it?

And please do NOT cross-post to more than two or three groups. Thank you.

The default is OE but it opens Thunderbird.
Windows is XP
