IE Page

I have Win7 installed and I cannot send a link or page from IE8.  Both "Send
page by E-mail..."  and "Send link by E-mail..." are "grayed out when I
select the drop down menu "Page".  Thanks for any help.

Oh, geez.  Even you know that Cox is NOT an e-mail client.  Stop being
facetious.

Well I actually have both, I guess.

Well I actually have both, I guess.  You could refer to a post of mine about
8 below this one titled  "multiple accounts" for a little background.  I am
still having issues with that, still getting the same mail in both my
cox.net account (my default account) and the windows.live account.

Of course you are right.

Of course you are right.  I meant to say I have, I guess, a number of email
addresses. When I was using Vista and Windows Mail as my email client,  my
address was toneywho@cox.net, I now am using Windows live as my email client
with two addresses; toneywho@cox.net and toneywho@live.net with
toneywho@cox.net my default plus something on the internet  called windows
live hotmail.  Whatever I am using it ain't working too well for me and  I
guess I am one of the few people in the world that liked Vista an am now
screwed up with Win7.

Hotmail vs Cox stuff, please.]

1. You may have a name@cox.net and a name@hotmail.com account/address and
you may consider one of them your default account/address but neither can be
a default Mail Client.  If Windows Live Mail is installed, it is your default
Mail Client.

A Mail Client is the application invoked when you (a) click on an
email-address (link) and (b) when using Send To functionality (e.g., 'send a
page' and 'send a link').

In Win7, you can select your default Mail Client (e.g., Windows Live Mail)
via Set Program Access and Computer Defaults:

2. This newsgroup is not an appropriate newsgroup for assistance with
Windows Live Mail.  Seek any further assistance here instead:

3. Technically, none of the MS Public newsgroups are appropriate places to
discuss anything having to do with Win7.  Since MS has chosen not to create
any new Win7-specific newsgroups, you will need to seek support in one of
these web-based forums:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7.

I'd strongly recommend subscribing to the Windows Live Mail newsgroup in
Windows Live Mail and bookmarking the Win7-specific forums for future
reference, Tony.

Best of luck.
