I want outlook to be the default email when I click on a web link to an email address but after selecting OUTLOOK.exe as the email link, it just opens the application each time. How do I get a message to pop up?

When you click on an e-mail link it will open your default e-mail program, in this case you set it to outlook. If Outlook is launching after you click on an e-mail address then it's functioning as it should.

"A message to pop-up"? what exactly do you mean by this?
