Email link in Entourage opens Mac Mail?

H

Does any one know why, (when I already have Entourage open), if I click on
an email address link within an Entourage email -- it opens up the mail
program that comes with Mac?

And while I have you here...

I'm trying to change the name of the header/folder that holds the inbox,
outbox, sent items, etc...right now it reads "On My Computer". I'm guessing
that's a default title. Anyone know how?

Thanks folks!

Open the Mail app and go to Prefs > General and change the default mail app
to Entourage. This is where the default for mail is now set in Panther.

It didn't give me that option, at least not in OS 10.2.8., which I currently
use.
Short of trying to remove the Mac mail program entirely, I can seem to stop
it from interfering with Entourage.
I went in to the (Mac) Mail program, >prefs>general...but there was no
option to deselect it as default, or make another app (Entourage) default.

Still trying...hoping someone has an alternative?

Thanks

It's different in OS 10.2 and earlier. You need to go to System Preferences
(Apple menu) and then click the Internet button. Click the "E-mail" tab,
and set Entourage as the default e-mail reader.

Thank you Mickey -- we have a winner!
I was just snooping around in system prefs when your email came in.
Good timing. Cheers!
