Default Re: oe as default mail handler

I ssume from this post that you fixed the persons problem with that
attachment, since there is no follow-up. I am working on the same problem in
XP-SP1. Mail Recipient. MAPIMail is in the folder but does not function. Is
there a file to merge for XP?

Thanks

------------Save between the lines as XPMapiMail.reg---------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.MAPIMail]
@="CLSID\\{9E56BE60-C50F-11CF-9A2C-00A0C90A90CE}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.MAPIMail\PersistentHandler]
@="{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note blank line at the end.
