Resolution This helped me.

This happens if a default mail client is not correctly set. Using the Default Programs - Set your default programs, and selecting your mail client (for example, Windows Mail) also may not help.


Follow these steps to resolve the problem.
  1. Click Start, select Default Programs
  2. Click Set program access and computer defaults
  3. Click Custom, and select your mail client (for example, Windows Mail)
  4. Click OK
Note: If User Account Control is enabled, you'll be prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation after following the step 2 above. When the prompt appears, type your password, or click Continue.

That's because Windows7 stripped out their own Windows Mail program and are urging people to download their Live Essentials pack.

I download and installed Mozilla Thunderbird open source, looks very familiar to Windows Mail.
