I use Windows XP not 7, and The Bat!, not Voyager. But here are a 
couple of untested suggestions.

In Windows XP, there is "Set Program Access and Defaults", accessible
from the start menu. Can also get to it by selecting "Add or Remove
Programs" in the control panel. If you have that in Windows 7, you
could try selecting the radio button next to "use my current email
program" and possibly un-ticking the box next to Microsoft Office
Outlook that is marked "enable access to this program".

If doing that while all email programs closed and then re-booting,
doesnt help, maybe you could achieve something via the tools | folder
options menu in an Explorer window. I have not tested this idea, and
the steps are from Windows XP; 7 might be a bit different. On the
"File Types" tab, select "URL:MailTo Protocol" and click the
"advanced" button. Select "Open" and click the "Edit" button, then 
click the "browse" button and locate your Voyager executable. Click 
the "open" button to select it. On mine, which points to The Bat!, 
"use DDE" is ticked and the "DDE Message" box is populated with 
'/nologo /o:"%1"' (without the single quotes but with the double 
quotes). I have not used Voyager, so I don't know if it needs this.

If you are afraid to speak against tyranny, then you are already a slave.
