When you click Advance you will get the Edit File Type box. Don't Change Icon, click the New.... button.  You will get yet another box called New Action.  Type open in the Action: slot then press the Browse button and nevigate to your HDD, Program Files, Outlook Express ... Click the Outlook Express folder and look on the right, find MSIMN.EXE and click it.

That will set MSIMN.EXE as the Application used to perform action.  Click your way out, reboot and try Send to with an image now.

I clicked on 'Advanced" and got the window shown below.  What do I do now?

Click New. You will get a box, the same one I show in SS above, type in "open" in the action box, press the Browse button and when you get the Open With box nevigate to MSIMN.EXE. ( Start with C: drive > Program Files > Outlook Express .. click the Outlook Express folder and in the right panel find MSIMN.EXE and click it).  

It will be set a the "Application used to perform action".

Click your way out .. clicking OK and Close or whatever the method of closing the window.  Reboot and try Send to on an image.

I've done everything as instructed and when I right-click on a picture it STILL goes to Thunderbird instead of Outlook Express 6.
