Does anyone happen to know how to get thunderbird to set itself as the default mail program. I keep checking the yes box, but everytime the program loads it comes back up. Really anoying.
I've found several ISPs that have a real problem with Thunderbird. Hughes Net and ATT to name two.
While I used Thunderbird for years with my comcast connection I have now switched to Windows Live Mail as have most of my friends.
It sets itself up with no hassles, and I like the interface better now that I'm used to it. I like the fact that it shows your e-mail message full hight on the right side of the screen instead all scrunched up at the bottom.
click the start orb, default programs, set your default programs. In the program list on the left select your email client, then click set this program as default. That should do it for you.
