Question about Internet Email Links to Entourage

I use Entourage exclusively for email instead of the Mac's Mail Program. For web browsing I use both Safari as well as Firefox. My question: Frequently I go to web sites which have a email link to click on to open up a email msg to email that specific person. The problem, whenever I do this it opens up the mail program, not Entourage and I can't figure out how to change this. I looked in both Firefox and Safari and see no options so I am thinking its something in OS X telling it where to default to. How can I go about doing this?

Hi,

You need to load mail.app just once. Go through the setup screens (you don't need to fill anything out) until you get to the preference pain. Under general at the top it gives you an option to select the default mail reader. Select the right one for you and hey presto.
