How I launch mailto using outlook express, my default mail program.

I have downloaded firefox browser for Win XP. I have a default mail program on my computer. I have checked and firefox recognizes it as default. How can I access it from the browser and can I set a bookmark? for quick access. Thanks

#Right click the Internet Explorer icon on your desktop and go to Properties. 
#Click the Programs tab and make sure it says "Outlook Express" in the Email menu. 
#Close that and then in Firefox, press the ALT key to toggle the text menu links on (and off). 
#Click File and then "Send Link".
It should open OE with the link to whatever page you're on.

I am using outlook express for my mail. When using internet explorer on PC I could set it up so I could simultaneously see all my inboxes, the mail details and a message preview. Can I do this on my Mac?

I am using outlook express for my mail. When using internet explorer on PC I could set it up so I could simultaneously see all my inboxes, the mail details and a message preview. Can I do this on my Mac?

About accessing using a browser: I can get in using Firefox or Safari, butI cant set the page up to see all my inboxes at the same time (so I can file emails appropriately) or get a preview to save opening every mail

Lion, Mail, and Outlook. I can't get preferences in Mail to accept Outlook as the default mail program. Outlook works fine within the Office world but not with Preview or Lightroom (to choose two that I've tried today). Any ideas?

As per the heading, I can't get Lion to accept Outlook 2011 as the default mail program. When I go through the Preferences in Mail to set the detault mail program, I can see Outlook, I can select it, but it doesn't "stick." As soon as I reopen Mail, Mail is the defailt mail program again. It also doesn't work though the Outloook Preferences menu. I'm a recent transfer to Macs, and could use some help. Any ideas?
Thanks!

There is a forum specifically for MS Office for Macs, just click Office for Mac Product Forums and post there, they should know.

How do I make gmail not Outlook Express my default email program in firefox?

This used to just work on a different system and I don't remember having to set any default settings. For example, when I am browsing through craigslist and want to email someone that has posted an ad I used to being able to just click the encrypted hyperlink to that person and the gmail login page would come up. On this system it prompts me to use OE. I've tried disabling OE, I've tried deleting OE (won't let me delete), I've deleted OE from the registry but still it pops up when I'm in Firefox. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

How can I get the Ask Me widget in Captivate 5 to use Outlook Express?

I want to use the Ask Me widget, but I have a customer that doesn't have Microsoft Outlook for their employees. They use Outlook Express as their email client. I have asked them to open Outlook Express when they are in the CBT and click the Ask Me button, but it gives them an error message that says "could not perform the operation because the default mail client is not properly installed."
Is there any way to have it recgonize Outlook Express as their default mail client?

Hi there
I'd be checking to see how a basic MailTo: function works on the affected PC. Just visit a web page that has a clickable link that opens email. Click the link and observe the behavior. You may find yourself surprised.

How do I use Safari or Outlook Express for e-mail?

I have Mac OS 10.3.5 and Safari. I am going to switch my ISP with AOL dial-up to a DSL company possibly with Yahoo. I have never used Outlook Express. Now, I want to use either Safari or Outllok Express 5.0 for my e-mail. I want to save all the e-mail in my compter. Which program can work better for me? How do I start to set up e-mail?
Thank you very much in advance for your advice and instruction.
Robert

Safari does not do email (except if it is web email which all browsers can do.) Outlook Express only works with OS 9, there is no OS X version. OS X comes with a dedicated email application called Mail. You will find it in your Applications folder.
If you open the Mail application and select Mail Help from the Help menu you will find all the information on how to configure Mail for your email needs.

You would open Outlook Express on your PC...

How do i set up an e-mail account on my ipad 2 using outlook express 6

i'm having problems receiving and sending e-mail on my ipad 2. My existing e-mail account on my windows pc is using outlook express 6. I've entered all the pop settings but nothing happens

No error messages or anything? If your OE is still running and is using POP, there won't be any email for you to retrieve with your iPad because OE has downloaded the email to your computer. To sync email between your computer and your iPad you need to use IMAP settings on both your computer and iPad, not POP.

Can't send E-mails using Outlook Express on WRT300N

Hello, I searched through the forums to find problems similar to mine, but everyone had a different router than mine, plus none of the solutions worked for me.
I just purchaced and installed my router yesterday. Since the install, I have not been able to send e-mails using Outlook Express, but I do recieve e-mails. I am using the WRT300N Wireless-N Router.
Trying to get my local news service up and running, and right now, e-mail communication is vital........
Thanks.

Well of course, but the error message says socket error, which doesn't tell how to fix it. Even the Outlook Express help site doesn't give any suggestions to fix anything, other than "Your internet connection has failed," which is not the problem.
To the disable firewalls suggestion: I did try disabling my firewalls and all of my virus/ e-mail scan software just to check it out. The thing is, I don't see how my Windows XP Firewall, or anything I've been using could be a problem. Right now, because of the error all my sent e-mails are stuck in the outbox, when I disconnect my router and connect everything back up leaving the router out of the picture, the e-mails are sent out as normal. This problem only occurs with the router connected.
I also need to stream live audio, and I've heard it's a pain using a wireless router...
Thanks for the suggestions, hopefully someone will provide the winning suggestion so I don't have to call customer service!

Can't send link using Outlook Express

I've set up that Firefox mailto accesses Outlook Express. However, when I try to send a page as a link, Outlook Express opens, but the link doesn't appear and I just go to my inbox.

Hi everyone,
i am having the same issue here in Australia. I cannot send emails using Outlook 'unknown error has occured in outlook'. Have contacted my service provider and they offered the great below advice.
Email Address: <TPG Username>@tpg.com.au
Incoming Mail Server: mail.tpg.com.au (Port 110)
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.tpg.com.au (Port 25 or 587)
Username/Account Name: <TPG Username>
Password: <your TPG password>
Enable the option for "My server requires authentication" and click "logon using"
Username/Account Name: <TPG Username>
Password: <your TPG password>
*Log on using Secure Password Authentication should not be ticked
any advice is greatly appreciated.

How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.

Hi
During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

I can, I can't get my address book to snyc with my ipad2. I'm using Outlook express 2004. I followe the steps in itunes, but still no contacts. Any suggestions?

Can't get my address book to sync to IPAD2. Using Outlook Express 2004. I followed the steps in Itunes, but still not contacts. Any suggestions?

Mine is doing the exact same thing, and nobody on any of these threads has had any luck fixing it yet, so far as I can tell. iSync is worthless since it simply won't see the ipod and basically is not used at all now as .mac is done through its own preference window. What did work for me, and was quite easily done, was to just open your ipod through the finder and delete the vcard data in the contacts folder. Export your contacts from address book as a vcard to that contacts folder on your ipod, and it all works fine.
Still won't sync...but at least this only takes a minute to do. I'd like to actually fix it though.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are mail links not opening Outlook Express? If so, see [[Changing the e-mail program used by Firefox]]
