I have inadvertantly deleted the URL:MailTo Protocol file type and need to recreate it using Outlook 2000 as the email program. I know the format of the Outlook command line, but cannot find any instructions for creating the rest of the filetype.

The description should be URL:MailTo Protocol, but it insists that I enter a file type and I don't know what to enter there nor do I know what to enter in the MIME type input box.

Can anyone help?

Thanks very much.

See if this works for you:
If there's no 'URL:MailTo Protocol' entry, create one by clicking the New Type button. In the dialog box, type URL:MailTo Protocol in the MIME Type box, and type the path to your mail program's executable file--for example, c:\eudora\eudora.exe--in the "Application to use" box. Click OK. When the program asks you for the file extension, type URL:MAILTO PROTOCOL.
