Cannot forward an email from a newsgroup in Outlook Express...

[Brad Pears]

I use Outlook express as my news viewer. We use Outlook in our company as
our default mail client - so Outlook is configured as my default mail app..

I want to forward an email from one of the news groups to a co-worker but
when I click on forward in Outlook Express, the following error is
displayed...

"You don't have a simple MAPI compatible mailer installed. Micorosoft
Outlook Express News cannot mail this message without a compatible mailer."

Why can't it use Outlook (general) to do this? What do I need to do in order
to be able to forward? I can "reply to group" no problem...

Thanks,

Brad
