The e-mail feature isn't working, can I fix it?
Handy's e-mail feature requires you have an
e-mail client installed and properly configured. Handy uses
"Simple MAPI" to communicate with your default e-mail client to send
e-mail. To use this feature your e-mail client must support Simple
MAPI. Most popular e-mail programs do support Simple MAPI.
Here are some instructions for properly configuring some of the more
common e-mail clients. Note, this list is not all-inclusive, it
only covers some e-mail clients. Any e-mail client that supports
Simple MAPI should work.
America Online:
You must be using AOL 7.0 or later. Earlier versions did not
support Simple MAPI.
