E-mail Button Stopped Working
Posted: Tue Dec 04, 2007 9:47 pm
My hard drive was about to fail, so I bought a new one. I used the manufacturer's software to copy the data from the old drive to the new. Seemed to work OK.
Then I started DM and tried to e-mail someone. Nothing. Not even an error message.
I tried clicking on an e-mail link in a web page and did get a message about my "default e-mail client not being setup correctly." Microsoft actually has an answer for this one, here at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312346
After I followed the steps to fix my web link problem, it fixed the DM problem. (Actually, it's not really a DM problem, but a Windows File Association/DDE problem.)
Hope that helps someone.
