E-mail options in internet options

G

Guest

When I go to control panel/network and internet connections/internet
options/programs, I no longer have an option for e-mail. I used to have this
set to Outlook Express, and then changed it to Hotmail. Now I have neither
option, so if I ever click on an e-mail link, I get an error message.
This used to work fine, and under programs I can change the settings for
html editor, so there doesn't seem to be a problem there, so any ideas?
Thanks.

Click Start, Run and type:

"%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\MSIMN.EXE" /REG

This should add Outlook Express to the list.

Hi Michelle,

Yahoo! did supply ymmapi.dll MAPI plugin (similar to hmmapi.dll for Hotmail). I don't have a link at the moment. IIRC, it's a setup program.
