When I click to go to my E-mail inbox--even though Mozilla FireFox is my default browser--my mailbox will be opened in Internet Explorer 7. Currently, I've started using Safari 3 Beta & I love that browser. How can I change it to open my mailbox in a browser other than Internet Explorer? I'm using Windows XP Pro SP2 & WML 8.1.

Stuffplug 3 has this feature and would probably be safe to use, however it is BETA software so be extremely careful.

The problem with SP3 (StuffPlug3) though is that it hasn't been updated for quite a while and doesn't support Windows Live Messenger 8.5

PS: use a non-hotmail/msn Windows Live ID and you wont have these problems

Provided you set your default email client properly in Windows of course.

use this script made from SpunkyLoveMuff, if I'm not wrong...

var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message){
   if(Message.substr(0,3)=="/ie"){
     Shell.run("iexplore "+Message.substr(4,Message.length));
     return "";
   }
   if(Message.substr(0,3)=="/ff"){
     Shell.run("firefox "+Message.substr(4,Message.length));
     return "";
   }
}
then create a new quick text with /ff InboxURL.
so every time you wanna check your email, you just need to write /inbox or something like that.

I'm pretty sure that that won't work... I don't think the inbox url is constant... correct me if I'm wrong

well... I've just used it to see the notification of a new post in this thread, so I'm pretty sure that works . the only thing I've noticed so far is that sometimes you have to retype your password to enter the inbox.

Hmm... seems to work, but as you said, sometimes it asks you to login...

Use Windows Live Mail(desktop).

If they're gonna use Windows Live Mail Desktop, they might aswell as just go to the inbox login page unless FF isn't open already
