Change funktion of softkey "Messaging"

---

T-Mobile (Germany) made some strange changes: They created folders for varius programs. "Messaging" ist the folder Messaging (Nachrichten) and Email-Wizzard.
When I press the softkey "Messaging" (i.e. at the bottom of the Today-Screen) the folder Messaging is opened and not the aplication.

That's anoying. How cane I change the function of a softkey?

you have to change the application software, or write an application where you can use the softkeys.

OK, maybe my message was a bit misunderstandable.

At the todayscreen there are two softkeys at the bottom line: Messages (Nachrichten) and Calendar (Kalender).
Messages is maped to a folder, which contains the links to Messages and the EmailWiz.

The name an target of the softkey can be changed here:
\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112 and 113

Interestingly the keys are mapped to the folowing programs: HTCCalendar and HTCMessages.

But wich is the program and path to the original "messages"?

I believe the original program is \Windows\tmail.exe

However, my JASJAR doesn't have the 113 reg key. I have the 112 key and I've changed it to Resco Explorer.

@rilot: How many softbuttons do you have at the todayscreen? Only one?

I succesfuly changed it to tmail.exe. IT works. I don't know if there are some parameters which I should hand over - but it works...

I have 2 buttons on the today screen.

Calender and Contacts by default. I've changed the one marked contacts to Resco Explorer as contacts has it's own key on the keyboard.

I think you only need to create the 112 and 113 reg keys if you wish to change the default functions of the buttons.
