YES!!! VICTORY!!! That was exactly the problem; now the Bat works
perfectly. No more contemplating which email client to stick with. If
anybody else has this problem, here are the specifics of what to do:
1. Go into Options-->Preferences and click on the "Applications" Tab.
Associate the Bat as the mailto: handler and UNSELECT "Check that the
Bat! is default mail client at startup." (The program likes to undo
the "fix")
2. Run regedit and go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command.
Take the %1 out of the "Default" value.
Cheers to Marck for finding the solution. I am now a happier person.
