"EITHER THERE IS NO DEFAULT MAIL CLIENT OR THE CURRENT MAIL CLIENT CANNOT FULFILL THE MESSAGING REQUEST. PLEASE RUN MICROSOFT OUTLOOK AND SET IT AS THE DEFAULT MAIL CLIENT"
So, I'm getting this error pop-up, and have been for weeks. I'm using
Incredimail as my default client, and for some reason, something is trying to use Outlook to send something? I've run Mayware Bytes, I've tried to system restore, I've tried to kill processes. All with no luck. Anyone think of anything that would help? Thanks in advance. |

I know how to set the default mail client. Incredimail is already set up to
be the default, and has been. "Jon D. Schoenherz" wrote in message ... So, I'm getting this error pop-up, and have been for weeks.

The security prompt doesn't give much, if anything, tell you what program wants access to Outlook's address book or other resource. However, the security add-on from Mapilab will tell you (because it lets you decide if you want that particular program to have access). It's free at: http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/security/ Now for my rant on Incredimal (yes, deliberately misspelled) ... Incredimail - The choice of immature, irresponsible, and ignorant e-mail users Incredimail is the choice of immature e-mail users, those that need to hide the fact that they have little substance in the content of their message and need to fluff it up with extraneous style and extra garbage. Or maybe you are a marketer or spammer and that's why you need to bloat your messages: little to say so use something to enlarge it. Sure, yeah, your recipients want e-mails that are ten times larger than necessary and bloated with fluff backgrounds, music, gifs, and other non-essential crap. A simple 2KB message will bloat up to 55KB, or worse. Are you trying to irritate your recipients that still use dial-up by making them wait longer to receive your bloated mails? You'll find anything you have in Incredimail, like contacts, will be hard or impossible to get out once you decide to leave it. Use a good e-mail program. Incredimail isn't one of them. If you decide to continue using it, expect some of your recipients to block that crap-ridden mail or even have it tagged as spam if you send many mails to the same domain, especially for short messages since the fluff crap will constitute most of the message and be seen as the major content of all those repetitive e-mails. Also, you may find your recipients don't appreciate getting childish content. The HTML coding it employs is awful, and it is highly likely that most if not all of your e-mails don't even require being sent as HTML messages (which, at a minimum, doubles the size of your mails to provide an HTML copy and a plain-text copy assuming that Incredimail follows the RFC standards which wouldn't be a surprise if they don't). Be a responsible and considerate email sender. Don't use Incredimail which emphasizes style over content; i.e., you waste the recipient's time, bandwidth, and disk space with fluff. Once you decide it is crap, you'll be back asking how to uninstall it. ISPs or e-mail providers will support only one or few e-mail clients (to minimize the training or expertise required by their techs since the operation of the e-mail client is not their concern but only in the settings needed for it to use their e-mail service). Don't expect any to help you with Incredimail. From what I read, don't even expect Incredimail to help you with Incredimail. Did you even see a FAQ or help page at their web site? Well, there is a very, VERY minimal help page but no link to it from their main page (go hunting on their other web pages and look at the bottom for a list of links). When I send e-mail, I expect only my mail server to get it and deliver it to the recipient. However, with Incredimail, it also connects to them to send information about your use of Incredimail. Read http://email.about.com/cs/incredimai...t/et063003.htm. Doesn't anyone bother to read their, um, "policies" (http://www.incredimail.com/english/privacy.asp)? They announce that they will collect info regarding your e-mails. Oh no, they're not spyware but they DO collect info on your e-mails. Sure, they don't spy, uh huh - but they DO spy. An e-mail client should only be connecting to the user's mail server, not to Incredimail's server, too. They would like to redefine the term "spyware" to not include themself. People got enraged with Gmail doing that to provide targeted marketing. No email program should track your email (date & time, how many times you use their program, which pictures you used) and store this marketing data on a server located in a foreign country - but Incredimail does. They admit that they collect info about your sent e-mails which means a data collection and transmission mechanism is already incorporated into their e-mail client. With that link between your computer and their server, they can collect any information you enter into their email program, including the contents of your mails, mail servers, and even passwords. They *promise* not to interrogate the contents of your e-mails but the mechanism is already there to send them whatever they want, and they already openly admit to spying on you. The data is stored on their servers in Israel. Do you know the privacy laws there? Have you ever dealt with Israeli companies? From their site, "IncrediMail relies on two platforms to make an income; 1) the sale of its software products and 2) advertisement via the Status Window in the application and on the Web site." So either you buy it from them or you choose to use their adware (ads in their Status window). Not only do they spew ads in your face but they also append their "promotional" spam signature at the end of every one of your outbound e-mails. Free accounts at Yahoo and Hotmail do that, too, and why I will receive from their service but I will NOT send through it. Instead use your own ISP's SMTP server to send your outbound mails. However, if you use the free Incredimail client, you spew spam in every one of your outbound mails. Do you think your recipients really appreciate getting Incredimail's ugly advertisement at the end of your mails? You think your e-mails look professional with someone's spam tacked onto the end of it (in addition to all the fluff they add to bloat the size of your e-mails)? Are you devoted to producing amateurish e-mails? So here is crapware that severely bloats the size of mails, used by children and spammers to hide that there is little content in their mails, spies on your mails, and spews ads in your face (unless you buy it although other *good* e-mail clients are free). Sometimes it is difficult to believe that so many adults are so gullible and also such irresponsible e-mailers. |
