Send mail/link from within IE6 does not start up outlook 2003

[Diek]

We are in an enterprise domain and connect to an Exchange
Server via either Outlook 2003 sp2 or Outlook 2000 sp3.
On different machine i have the xpsp2 version of IE installed), both
"Send page by e-mail" and
"Send link by e-mail" not function. They idle for a while
then report that the Exchange Server is offline.
We have Firefox and correctly initialize and present an Outlook mail
form.
I cannot find anywhere on the Microsoft site information about this
problem.
If we choose Outlook Express (as default program) all function.
Have any idea about ???? thanks...
