Occasionally I want to email from a link in my email message and the dialog box shows only Yahoo or Windows mail. How do I add my email preference (netscape.net) so when I click a link I get this option for email responses? I have tried copying the header info for composing and pasting it into the "browse" location where it ask for a "app". However it is not accepted as it is not an executable file.

Thank You

Thanks for the data. Very detailed but not helpful. First I Have W7 running. Also, use Netscape (AOL) for my email program. Have tried copy/paste the compose header (what is in the bar at composing time) info into the application area after the browse window is chosen. Looked on the C drive for AOL or Netscape and not found. I do receive mail from either @netecape.net or @aim.com from the same address. Any additional suggestions? Thanks in advance.
