Windows Mail

Hi,

Would it be possible for some kind person to give advice on this
question from my wife.

When reading an email using Windows Mail,if the text in the body of that
email contains an email address,is it possible to double click on that
address and have Windows Mail open automatically with a blank reply page
?
This operation used to work OK with XP & OE however using Vista &
Windows Mail it only pops up a message stating that the program is not
associated.

Clicking on an email address in a web page using IE8 works fine, it
opens up a Windows Mail reply page.

Thanks for any advice,
Regards,
Geordie

Hi,

The last bit about opening up from a web page is not correct,when an
attempt is made to carry out this proceedure,a message appears stating
the following "The default mail client is not set up correctly".
