Something it does now *all* the time, since I don't use any other email client. But at least it wouldn't open up Outlook ((shudder)). Well. There was a question recently (not sure whether it was on this list or on TBBETA) why Ritlabs develops two programs in parallel, The Bat! and Voyager. I think this answers the question. ;-) -- Cheers, Thomas. Current version is 3.99 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Voyager as default email client?
Hello tbudl, Is there any way to make Voyager the default email client on a computer? I have tried, but have not been successful. Anytime I click on a mailto link, Outlook or something else comes up. It may seem counterintuitive for me to want to do this, but I don't use TheBat! at all, and just take Voyager between home and office so no synchronization is necessary. -- Doug mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** TheBat!
