Configuring E-mail Software A-3

Microsoft Outlook 97/98 as Default MAPI

Microsoft Outlook 97/98 does not have a function for setting itself as default

MAPI application, so there is no way to directly assign it as system default

MAPI. However, ScanWizard 5 will still be able to auto-detect the program if

any of the following conditions prevails:

• You have installed no other e-mail application except Microsoft

Outlook 97/98.

• You have installed other e-mail applications aside from Microsoft

Outlook 97/98, but none of them is setup to be your default MAPI.

That is, Microsoft Outlook 97/98 automatically becomes your default

MAPI-based unless otherwise other e-mail application in your system

has been manually defined to be the default MAPI to supersede

Microsoft Outlook 97/98.

NOTE NOTE If you have a number of e-mail applications in your

system, the last application to be defined as your default MAPI

will override the previously defined application.

Setting Netscape Mail 4.6 as Default MAPI

1. Open your Netscape Mail (aka Netscape Messenger) Version 4.6 or later

2. Click on

Edit from the menu bar

3. From the resulting menu, select

Preferences

4. From the resulting Preferences dialog box, check the items on “MAPI-based

applications" as shown below to define Netscape Mail as your default MAPI

Tick this check box to

make your Netscape Mail

as your default e-mail

program and allow

ScanWizard 5 to auto-

detect and launch the

program during "scan to

e-mail' function
