Netscape and Eudora

Hi all,

This one has me stumped:

Is there anyway you can get Netscape 7.x to use Eudora as the default email program (when you click on a link) instead of its own messenger email program? Thanks in advance.

I think I found a workaround assuming that you are not wanting to use the email client in netscape at all. If you do a custom install and choose not to install the mail and instant messaging portion then clicking on an address in netscape appears to open up your default mail client. I am assuming it will open whatever is your default because I don't use Eudora at home but it opened Outlook when I cllicked on an address. Hope this is some sort of help.

Thanks for your help PMich. I also came to the conclusion that it would probably work during a custom install without messenger, but the machine I'm working on has the whole suite installed. I figure there's gotta be some way (maybe a registry hack) to change this. Maybe it might be good to do two installs (one with and one without messenger) and see if there's some sort of difference. Thanks again for your help, I appreciate it.
