How do I change my default mail client ??

[Will]

I'm using build 5728
This morning I installed office 2007 beta, Normally I never install outlook
but I accidently did a full install instead of a custom install
And now outlook 2007 is my default mail client Normally in all other
versions of office you would get a prompt asking if you would like to make
it your default mail client. (may be something that needs to be fixed) but
to my surprise this is no longer the case and now outlook 2007 has removed
all links to windows mail
And I don't want to use it for my mail

How do I restore windows mail as my default mail client ??

It's fixed I was looking in options without any luck but I found it under
set defualts in control panel under "programs"

Control Panel | Programs
Under Default Programs click Set your default programs.
I would uninstall Outlook if you do not intend to use it. Otherwise every
time there is an update for it Outlook will become the default mail program
again.
