How to make Outlook my Default email

[Ed]

I am currently use Outlook Express as my email. I also
have Outlook 2003 and am trying to get Outlook 2003 setup
as my default. I have set Outlook 2003 as my default,
but it still doesn't send and recieve email. For some
reason everything still goes through Outlook Express.
Any idea what I need to do?

Thank you.

a) remove the mail account(s) in Outlook Express - b) don't open Outlook
Express!

Use the Test Account Settings under the email accounts option to
troubleshoot this problem. I presume that you installed your mail accounts
under Control Panel->Mail Icon?
