I currently have Groupwise 5.2 as our company-wide email client. I need to be able to set Groupwise as the "default" email program through INTERNET OPTIONS/PROGRAMS.

Right now my only choices are Outlook, LotusMail and Hotmail. Groupwise is notevenin the dropdown menu... Any solutions for me on this one? (i searched Novell but my eyes grew tired with the irrelavent search results).

I love Novell, and would never turn tail and run to MS, but there are just some things the boys in Provo just don't get.

Groupwise is a Mapi "aware" program, but not Mapi "compliant".

I've spent countless hours re-loading groupwise after users have upgraded their web browsers, and selected the mail client as the windows default. Blows Groupwise right out of the water, requiring a fix of mapi32.dll etc.

One prolonged search + another prolonged agonized search = "I guess we're screwed"

lemme know if you get the solution. Gonna subscribe to this one.
