Default Change to a different e-mail

When ever do a merge to e-mail the default e-mail is Outlook, I would like to
be able to use Windows live mail. How do I change that. I've set my
internet options to use Windows live mail as it default program but that
didn't seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tom

Count yourself lucky that you have Outlook to rely on. From other posts to
this newsgroup, it appears that Windows Live Mail cannot be used when
executing a merge to email.

What if I have 2 accounts in Outlook and I want to use the email of the
non-default account? Is it possible to set the mail merge for emails such
that it's sent from the other email account?

Only if you set the second e-mail account as default for the duration of the
merge.

MAPILab's Mailmerge toolkit add-in for Outlook
http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/mail_merge/ will allow you to select the
account at merge time (for a price).
