Setting up Mailbird to be your default email client is very easy to do - in this article, we will walk you through the process of setting up Mailbird to become your default email client in Windows so that your emails can be managed via a single email client.

  • Start by opening the Mailbird menu in the top lefthand corner (i.e. the three horizontal lines).
  • Click on Settings.
  • Navigate to the Advanced tab.
  • Here, apply a checkmark in the box next to Default email application: Tell me if Mailbird is not the default email client.
  • Finally, click on the Set as default button.

Now, whenever you click on an email address which is hyperlinked, a window will automatically open in Mailbird for you to compose an email which can be sent to that email address. We have also added MAPI support for Mailbird in order to enable you to send a file directly through Mailbird.

Hopefully you have found this article helpful, but if you require any further assistance in setting up Mailbird as your default email client, please contact our Customer Happiness Team by clicking here.
