We set the pop3 email account as the default account to send from. There may be a simpler and faster solution. Check default email settings on your computer, go to settings > default apps, and verify that outlook is not being repeatedly triggered as the default email app due to the survey.

However, when i went into the account settings and tried to set the default data file back to the one for my outlook.com account, it gave me this error
The selected outlook data file (.pst) format cannot be used
Outlook data files (.pst) must use the same format as offline outlook data files (.ost). How can one set ms outlook as the default mail client in windows 7 Presently windows live comes up as the default email client I do not want my email to open up in a application, i want my default email association to go to a webpage hosting my email
I know i can set up the email app that comes with windows 10 to work with most any email provider, but i don't want to use the built in program I want it to open the web page i specify. The correct email address is selected as the default under email accounts under account settings. I have two personal outlook email accounts in my outlook
When i create a task, it defaults to my old outlook account
I have my default account set to my new email address, but tasks are assigned to I have just upgraded to office 2013 and have found that a mail merge no longer uses the outlook default account, but seems to use the ms live account Any idea why/how to change? The default can't be changed permanently and the prior procedure will allow you to scroll and change it and the size when you access the send feature
