Default "mail client cannot fulfill msg request"

I've set Outlook as my default and it appears to work - except that every 30
second this message pops up:

Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot
fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set
it as your default mail client.

Default "mail client cannot fulfill msg request"

Thanks for responding. The version pops up when I run Office Outlook 2007
for Vista (brand new to me). This screen pops up when I start the program
and then seemingly continuously thereafter; I'll close the box and it will
pop up immediately again; I'll close that second one and it will be maybe 2
min before it pops up again. It's been doing it all day and I haven't
detected a pattern, because I can close the program entirely and it still
pops up with the message. I went to my defaults and made sure to set them
all with Outlook, no luck. It doesn't appear to affect the ability of
Outlook to send/receive mail (or if it has, I haven't detected it), but it's
very very annoying.

Transfered in what way? If you over written the existing pst-file you have
corrupted your mail profile and need to recreate it. To do so see;

OK - i was hopeful - i followed the instructions to the letter - I created a
new profile in Control Panel-mail
Then I configured Outlook 2007 to use the new profile and had it deliver
emails to the old PST - set as default
Restart.
have NOT removed the empty PST file
Still get the same message from Outlook
Any more ideas?

This is interesting....I closed Outlook after doing the routine you
suggested. Restarted it - and closed it again. Now when I look at the folder
with the PST files in in - my original file (Created on 5/5) and the new one
(Created 5/8) both were modified at the same time - in otherwords Outlook is
opening both files? Does this make any sense? I'm still getting the message
btw.
I also tried to do a mail merge from Outlook to Word 2007 and it wouldn't
merge to an label - just an envelope - what is that about. I'm not a happy
camper with Vista and Office 2007 - you'd think they'd work together.
Keep the suggestions coming.
Thanks
