Set default email app

Newbie question here-want to set a default email program other than mail program. I use entourage and when i click on an email link, mail program always opens. I want entourage to open when click on email link. Can i do this?

Found it but will this also work if i delete the mail app?

don't delete mail.app. even if you don't use it, it's the only tool to set the default email application. in general don't delete any apps that came with the OS. who knows when you might need them and they don't take up that much space.
