Default Filesend to Mail Recipient (For Review)

So, what are my options? I'm using OE v. 6 and I think it's the most
current version. I considered deleting it and reinstalling it but wanted to
keep my address book and emails so tried to export them. The address book
transported fine but I got an error message when trying to export the email
files so won't run the risk of having them deleted by reinstalling OE 6.

Got any ideas? Thanks for your help...

Mike

Theoretically, Sent To will pick up the default email client. However, I
frequently see incompatibility problems when a different version of Word
than Outlook is used. I'm guessing that this is what is happening for you.

I know that there are strange happenings with compatibility. When I
uninstalled Office 2003 and installed Office 2007, I lost the English(UK)
spelling in Outlook Express I use as the NG reader and I currently have to
fight with English (US)!!!
