[Family Homes, Inc.]

Hi,
Just got the computer and want to send .pdf files through email.It comes up
wanting to send it through Outlook and asks for sign in for Microsoft
Exchange Server .How do I change the settings or make it go through Windows
mail instead?I figure it is a simple thing but I am not finding the answer
by myself.

It should work if you close the files in all other programs, then start a
new
message in Windows Mail, and in the new message window, click on
Insert, then File Attachment, then find the file.

Which program are you in when trying to send that PDF file?

Try this:
Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on Windows Mail.
If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults" then fix it by
clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
