The description for Windows is not exact. On microsoft artical [1] one can read the note:

NOTES

Registration as the default Start menu e-mail application is different from registration as the system default e-mail client or the registered mailto handler. The system default e-mail client is started when the user clicks Read e-mail from the Internet Explorer Tools menu. The registered mailto handler is launched when the user clicks an URL of the form mailto:someone@microsoft.com. The Start menu e-mail application is used when the user clicks the E-mail icon on the Start menu.

If there is no default Start menu e-mail application specified, then the E-mail icon on the Start menu will start the system default e-mail client.

I found out that the default Start menu e-mail application is tried first and than the system default e-mail client.

Looks like some users have trouble to keep those in sync. Suggestion is to add description how to set default Start menu e-mail application via properties of Task Bar

Other suggestion is to visit [2].

Thanks for the hint. I changed the link to point to the Mozillazine article instead.
