Gwingee, Yes..If You Like Outlook Express, Then....

...select to make it your default. You can also assure that Outlook Express is your default by doing this: Open the Control Panel, double click on the "Internet Options" icon. When that opens, click on then "Programs" tab and in the "E-mail" line, use the drop down arrow to then select Outlook Express. Once you've made the selection, click on "Apply", then OK.

Hope this helps.
