Internet Explorer / IE >> mail client on webpage?
Greetings,
Not sure whether to post this on this ng or OE, but here it is. I have a
notice on a google webpage and there is a link that says"contact the poster"
if the person is interested. I clicked on it myself to see where the email
goes, and I got a msg. saying "this task could not be performed because the
default mail client is not properly installed". What do I need to do about
this?
Thanks,
Jim
