Hello,
I just installed Flex Mail 2007 application and it re-associated sms sending - when I want to write or read new SMS, it's done through Flex which I do not want. There is option to "disable" default for sms, but obviously not working.
Is there any other way (e.g. in registry), how to re-associate SMS sending/receiving to phone's internal default?
Thank you!

I had exactly the same problem and have found the following workaround in collaboration with WebIS tech support:
1) This is one of a number of issues that should be resolved in FlexMaill 2007 version 4, which may be a free upgrade.
2) In the General settings uncheck the defaults for FlexMail as your default mail program, default SMS handler and for checking this on startup.
3) Possibly optionally but I did this to be on the safe side, soft reset your system i.e. power cycle it.
4) SMS now opens with the default app (which handles SMS parameters such as read receipts etc correctly, FM does not (yet)).
5) Just invoke FM whenever you need messaging. This is far more versatile and reliable than the MS mail client - my problem was the deletion of mail on my IMAP server even when the MS client was configured not to do so. So for all the current shortcomings FlexMail is a better tool.
This seems to have solved everything for me, pending the new version.
Hope this helps!

I have the opposite problem when installing flex mail I uncheck to replace my default sms program. Now I check it, because I want to use it for sms too, but it not works.
Hope this helps you. I haven't a solution yet.
