Thanks for your help!
I solved this problem by installing Outlook, then making OE the default mail
client. Once I did that the selection became available. I then uninstalled
Outlook leaving only OE and the option was still okay.... Must be Outlook
drops something into the coding for that option and once there will allow it
to function even if Outlook is then uninstalled.

Appreciatively, m3power!
