How do you set something like Yahoo Mail, Hotmail, or GMail as your default email client?

I need to give people instructions on how to do this, but I'm not really sure myself!





If you could provide instructions for both PC and Mac, it'd be awesome!

Well, I only know on PC:


Right click on start menu %26gt; properties %26gt; Customize %26gt; and select the default programs from the drop down list of the E-mail you will find them there


Hope it helps

Reply:Whenever you click an email address, it will open your default email PROGRAM, so most browser based email services cannot be used (unless configured to work with your email)
Reply:You can not do Yahoo or hotmail,Just gmail In the control panal under mail .select add new profile-pop-you will add your name - use yourname@gmail as the recieve and the send smtp-then your username and password -check remember password uncheck log on using spa-then test the connection and you should be good....That is if you use outlook-with a Mac you need to follow the same instruction just under computer mail preferences.....Good luck
