In other words, if you click on a link that creates an email, I'd like it to create an email from my Yahoo account, not Entourage.

Yes and no, but not how you think it should be. The links in web sites are for computers set up to access their email via POP or IMAP. The free version of Yahoo Mail is web based, but they do offer POP access for about $25 a year. The difference between the two systems is how you access your mail. Web-based mail is where you use your browser and access websites that have your mail on it. POP is where the messages are on a server, and you download them onto your computer at set intervals. Once they are on your computer, you can very quickly browse through them, whether you're connected to the internet or not. The e-mail link in websites open a default mail reader, but can't access your mail through the web in this fashion.
There are several alternatives to this. One would be to get another e-mail account that allows for free POP access. Your ISP usually gives you a number of e-mail addresses to choose from, and gmail and Bluebottle also offer free POP access.
