New Mail Window

[Ron]

Hello. When clicking on a "mailto" link in a webpage, vista mail will only
open to the inbox and not in a new mail window, with the mail to address
listed in the "to" box. Thanks for any advice to get this working right.

Make sure Windows Mail has all its defaults.
Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on "Windows
Mail". If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
