re: Default mail client Monday, January 5, 2009 at 8:55 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Ms. Eagle (33640 messages posted) I've had this tip forever, and it should work regardless of the OS or OE version. To make sure OE is the default email client: Select Start/Run, type the command below (or Copy/Paste), including " marks, in the 'Open' box and press enter. "C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg Next open Internet Explorer and go to Tools Internet Options under Programs and set OE as the default mail program. If that doesn't do it, try Start - Run, type: MSIMN /REG in the 'Open' box and press enter.
