Solved Make hotmail default
I think I posted this a while back but got no notifications. Can I please ask again:
I have gmail as my pc mailing default, but have changed to hotmail. But hotmail is not listed in default programs in the CP?? I want to make hotmail default.
all it says in defaults is 'make my current email default' with no means of switching? It still think gmail is my default.

I think the problem is: What CP(Control Panel)? Do you mean here in the forums? Windows Mail app? PC Settings Accounts?
