How can I make Rogers Yahoo! Mail my default email application?

If you're using Firefox 3...

1. At the top of Firefox 3, click Tools and select Options.
2. In the "Options" window, click Applications from the choices along the top.
3. Scroll down to "mailto", and click on it.
4. In the pull-down menu to the right of "mailto", click Use Yahoo! Mail.
5. Click OK at the bottom of the Firefox 3 window. You're done!

If you use Internet Explorer...

The tiny program that allows you to select Rogers Yahoo! Mail as the default email application for your PC is included as part of Yahoo! Toolbar version 7.2 and up for Internet Explorer (not Firefox).

If you don't have Yahoo! Toolbar v.7.2 or later for Internet Explorer installed, you’ll need to download it before proceeding with these instructions.

Here’s how to set your PC to open Rogers Yahoo! Mail when you click an email link on a web page.

1. From the “Start” pop-up menu in the lower left corner of your desktop, select “Settings” > “Control Panel”.
2. In the Control Panel, select “Internet Options”. This opens the “Internet Properties” window.
3. Click the “Programs” tab along the top.
4. Click the “E-mail” pull-down menu, and select Rogers Yahoo! Mail.
5. Click OK. Done!

We’re sorry there’s not an official version for the Mac—yet.

Note: Yahoo! Toolbar v.7.2 and above for Internet Explorer (not Firefox) is the download that adds Rogers Yahoo! Mail to your PC's list of email programs to choose from. But after you've chosen Rogers Yahoo! Mail as your PC's default email application, Rogers Yahoo! Mail will open when you click an email link in any browser.
