I did discover a questionable work-around by changing the name and email address on the Account->General->User Information of WLM - which caused email to be sent out with the Reply set up for my Gmail address.

I discovered a 3rd party APP that claimed to act as an interface between things line OneNote and Gmail, but those things scare me to death - I just don't download tat kind of stuff unless I can get some independent verification that the code is good (clean). So you are probably right, I need a true APP. Regarding your comment about changing the Email App at the OS level - as mentioned in my original post, I did go into Settings (Windows 10) and they had a drop-down for several Default email apps and 'Google Chrome' was in the list, so I changed the 'Default apps' for Email to 'Google Chrome' - hoping that would get me to Gmail, but that didn't work.

Yes, that is probably part of the problem - I just don't know what Gmail is called (never heard it referred to as an APP). So can anyone help me out with this - hard to believe this is a unique to me problem.

I am running Windows 10, and yes, I have gone into Settings and changed the Default Email App to Google Chrome (the drop-down list did not offer Gmail), but that didn't help. So is it possible, and how do I do it - to get OneNote to use the Compose feature in Gmail instead of using the WLM email message stuff.ДЄnd yes, it isn't just OneNote - I have this problem at other times when using a Mail-to link, for instance in a website (it always picks up WLM as the mailer) - but thought maybe I could attack this problem for the OneNote approach since it is something specific to work on. In OneNote, when I use the 'Send' option, OneNote picks up my WLM 'Email message' to send the OneNote stuff, and of course the WLM email has the 'old' email address in it - so anybody getting the email I sent from OneNote responds to my old email address. I have an 'old' (but still active) email address using Windows Live Mail 2012 (POP account) - but have been moving all of my mail to my Gmail address.
