    Here is the issue.

    I am running Windows 7 Pro with Office 2007.

    I attempt to open an email from sharepoint.  The email becomes an attachment to a new mail message from outlook 2007.

    When I attempt to open the same email from command line, it opens correctly.

    I have checked registry entries, and they all seem to point to the right places.

    I have set Outlook as the default E-mail program, as well as assigned the .eml files as defaulting to outlook.

    I have ran the microsoft fix, and manually implemented the fix after it didn't work, both to no avail.

     

    I need a solution for this, I can't believe Microsoft would have such an issue with compatibility with their own programs.

    If anyone has some insight, it is welcomed with open arms.

    I am unsure which forum to place this topic, since it covers so many microsoft issues/programs, so if this is located in the wrong place, please move it for me.

    I thank you all in advance for your assistance in this matter.

    I actually figured it out myself.

    Just had to edit a little bit of the registry.
