choosing a Default Email program??

[StykFacE]

Question: Can I default Yahoo! Mail as a default email client so Outlook Express will quit popping up? I'm trying to do this for my Uncle's computer and all he will use is Yahoo! Mail. He shops Craigslist a lot and he doesn't comprehend the whole "Copy/Paste" thing, so i'm trying to make it easier for him, so when he clicks the email links it just automatically pops up in Yahoo! Mail.

I'm hoping there's an easy fix, if not then no biggie. Thanks all who reply.

A default mail client has to be a program on the computer, not webmail.

Now, you *can* sign up for yahoo's plus mail service, which offers POP mail that will work with just about any mail client (outlook, OE, thunderbird, etc.)

Why not just make a short cut to yahoo mail and place it on the desktop?

Or give him yahoo messenger, and have that start and sign on automatically with the computer startup.

Well, I was more wanting to automate the process of clicking on an email ink that went directly to is online Yahoo Mail account. But thanks for the feedback guys... Just wondering if it was possible.
