open email

hi, when I open an email item, it launch use outlook express, how to set it
use outlook instead? please advice. Thanks.

It sounds to me like you are openening messages that are
of a .EML type. This file extension belongs to Outlook Express.
When you simply double click a file of this type, your computer
uses Outlook Express to open the message.

Why do you have these ".eml" type of messages?
Are they just files sitting in a folder somewhere?
Why do you want to open them into Outlook?
