"Bug Report" not working

[Bill Warner]

I tried to report a bug. Went to Help, Report a Bug - nothing happened.

It starts a email in my email client software for me. Do you have a client-based email system or a web-based?

RE:

I think this is 'Microsoft E-Mail' Problem.

RE:

Thanks, Al. I have AOL, so that's probably why.

RE:

That feature simply does a

sys_open("mailto:[email protected]")

which should open your default email client. If you try this fromt he interactive window, does it work?

Lenny,

I have the same problem - Yahoo! Mail is my default mail client. I tried your suggestion and nothing happened.

RE:

Dave, how do you set a web-based email service to be your default email client?

[Al Buchholz]

RE:

Philip

What is that?

RE:

Lenny,

If I understand your question correctly;

After I suscribed to the free Yahoo mail service, I decided to have them host by business website and with that came the business email account.

I have a shortcut on my desktop that opens my browser (Foxfire) which sets Yahoo as my home page. On the Yahoo main page, I simply click on the Mail icon, log in and I can select which of my two email accounts I want to check.

Hope this is what you are asking.

RE:

No Dave, that's not quite what I'm asking. What you prefer to use and what Windows has defined as your default application are two different things. If you click on my name above, it should open an email client and address an email to me. If you do that, what program opens up on your computer to send the email to me? That is your default email program.

RE:

Nothing happens. I'll dig around and see what I can find (and hopefully not screw up).

RE:

Lenny,

Okay. I've got Outlook set up as my default email client. The 'Send a Bug Report' under Help work.

Thanks,

Dave
