I would like to make Microsoft Outlook 2002 my default mail handler but all my incoming mails find their way into Outlook Express 6. I have already designated Microsoft Outlook 2002 as my default program (Tools-Options-Others-General-Checked the box for "Make Outlook the default program for email").  What else should I do?

I have already designated Microsoft Outlook 2002 as my default program (Tools-Options-Others-General-Checked the box for "Make Outlook the default program for email").  What else should I do?

Where is that?  Open Internet Explorer, go to Tools, Internet Options, Programs, and set Outlook as the E-mail program.

Problem not solved yet.
Thanks, soybean. I did just that - "Open Internet Explorer, go to Tools, Internet Options, Programs, and set Outlook as the E-mail program."  Then I sent test mails to myself from my Microsoft Outlook but all my incoming mails went straight to Outlook Express. .  What do you think is wrong here?

By the way, I also tried deleting my email accounts from Outlook Express, with the hope that all incoming mails will be "forced" to go to Microsoft Outlook, but no luck.  - this time i sent test mails to me from Microsoft Outlook, and still, no incoming mails went into Microsoft outlook.   Guys, I still need help.

Review your email account settings in Outlook, particularly the Incoming Mail Server info.  And, use the Test Account Settings button in the email account settings panel to test your email account setup.  If it doesn't pass the test, then you need to change something.

THANKS SOYBEAN!
I changed both the incoming and outgoing server names because of the network router I use.  I then re-tested the settings, they came out OK.
