PRoblem with default email program
in [Windows XP]

From: Jan Philips on 14 Apr 2010 17:01 I'm having problems with the default email program. When I would right-click on a photo and "send to mail recipient", SeaMonkey would come up. Thunderbird was set as my default email program. In Thunderbird I told it to be my default program and to check each time it starts. Under Internet options/programs, Thunderbird was set as the default. I tried resetting these, but SeaMonkey kept coming up. I tried a program called DefaultMail, told it to set the default to Thunderbird, it said "done", but I still had the problem. I uninstalled SeaMonkey but then no program would come up. It would give the window asking if I wanted to reduce the size of the photo file and another little window saying that it was preparing to send the email, but it never would bring up a program. I went through all of the steps above again, but nothing worked. I have XP SP3 with all of the updates. I think this problem started after I updated SeaMonkey. How can I get the default email program set properly? -- Replace you know what by j to email

We don't think Thunderbird is the problem because if I set the default email program to Outlook Express it has the same problem. -- Replace you know what by j to email

The command said that it succeeded, but setting the email program to Thunderbird or OE still has the same problem. And I rebooted just to be safe - same problem. -- Replace you know what by j to email |
