When I click on an e-mail link on Firefox, it will not open my aol mail to compose a letter. I cannot find, on Options - Applications - mailto, where I can point to aol mail.

Can someone help?

mailto is missing from the Content type list?
Or, AOL doesn't appear in the Actions dropdown for mailto?

AOL doesn't appear in the actions dropdown for mailto. HOWEVER, I have solved the problem by this manner:

I went to Control Panel - Programs - Default Program - Set Program access & computer defaults - Custom - Choose a default e-mail program - AOL.

When I did that, BAM! - I went to Firefox, clicked on the e-mail address, and it instantly put the e-mail address into AOL on an outgoing e-mail ready for me to use.

Thank you for responding. Don
