I have this problem with IE6 . I don't see why it can't
be fixed "without " a full reinstall of WinXP Home. I
get the prompt: "cannot send mail" "no program is set up
to send mail using internet shortcuts" whenever I try to
use an eimail link in IE6. Answers to this dilema are
sparse on the web and even here a Microsoft's site.
Thanks in advance.

Go to Start | Run and type this command, with the double quotes and spaces:
"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /reg
and then make sure that OE is selected as the default mail program in both
IE and OE.
If that isn't enough, see this article:
