In the Toolbar/properties/cusomize/general/Show on Start Menu/E-mail there
is a dropdown list that includes Hotmail.
How can I add my companies' Ooutlook Web Access to this list so that I can
make it my default e-mail browser?

Thanks, but this link does not help. Outlook Web Access(OWA) does not appear
in the list of email programs. It amazes me that Hotmail, a web-based email
client from MSN appears, but I that OWA does not. I did find a registry
hack, but that also does not seem to work.

Any suggestions?
 
AFAIK, OWA cannot be set to be the default Mail Client, but OL *using* OWA
can be.

Outlook Web Access is a function of Exchange and is not a true email account
type. If you are having problems, check with your Exchange admin at work.
Or ask in an Exchange group. OWA is only a web view of your Exchange
mailbox and has nothing to do with Outlook.
