Eudora has captured my email

[No One]

Hello -

I am running WIN XP Pro with Outlook 200 as my email tool.

I have a directory that has a bunch of old files in it and one of those is a
Eudora executable. I used to use this on a ZIP disk in 98/99 to get email
on my University computers.

The other day I clicked on the executable and it ran fine and I was able to
peruse old Eudora emails.

The problem is that now whenever I click on a 'mailto' or an email link on a
web page I get a couple of error messages about not being able to find
something to do with Eudora.

I would like things the way they used to be...

Please help...

Have you been able to solve this issue. I am having the same problem and
can't find any answers.

The problem is that now whenever I click on a 'mailto' or an email
link on a web page I get a couple of error messages about not being
able to find something to do with Eudora.

You may need to edit your Registry to correct the mailto association. You
can find this in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\mailto\shell\open\command. I also found
it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\Mail\Microsoft
Outlook\Protocols\mailto\shell\open\command and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Sofwtare\Clients\Mail\Outlook
Express\Protocols\mailto\shell\open\command, but I don't think these latter
two will affect what you see.

Thanks for the info. However, in each of these instances, Outlook is
specified, but I still have the problem.

Where else could the default e-mail be pointing to Eudora? IE Tools /
Programs has been addressed also.
