How do I stop Outlook 2003 from restricting FF42 "email Link"?

Hi,

How do I stop Outlook 2003 from restricting FF42 "email Link"?

Had to re-install Outlook 2003 and now when I,m on the Web, when I select FILE> EMAIL LINK, there is no pop-up allowing me to select an email address in Outlook 2003 to send it to.

Must be hidden somewhere, looked for ?? to no avail.

  2. Select Applications in the left side navigation pane.
  3. Scroll Content Type (right pane) down to "mailto" (without " ").
  4. Click the down arrow to expand the drop box.
  5. Select "Always ask" from the drop list.
  6. CLOSE the Options tab.
  7. Menu > File > Email Link... should enable the dialog box you are looking for.

GEWB,

Merry Chrismas and thanks for your solution to a problem that shouldnt been a problem in the first place.

When I set up Outlook 2003 I carefully went thru the options and chked "Outlook" as it was an option.

Dumb me should have known it was 'ask me" as that selection was so obvious, I stupidly selected the email client Installed on my PC which was Outlook 2003.
