Setting your default email application
Written by Philip Roy
Previously it was easy to tell the operating system which application you wanted to open and read your mail with by changing a setting in the System Preferences area. This setting is now hidden...inside Apple's default "Mail" program.
To switch to using a different program for viewing an sending email, launch the Mail program, go to the "Edit" menu and choose "Preferences". In the "General" section of the preferences window, you can change your default Email reader by selecting it or choosing in the pop-up menu as shown.
