Default Outlook 2000 on Vista

There was a registry edit that could be used in xp that would stop outlook
from checking to see whether it was the default.
I was hoping there was one possibly in Vista. or possibly uninstalling
Windows mail client...


mmmm

Thanks

I'm not familiar with that registry entry - did you try it? I would not
uninstall mail - like OE, it's best left installed.
