Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?

What messages are you talking about? From where?

M/S Outlook messages that come often say, "to read in browser click here." But doing so always takes me to an unreadable message in M/S Edge rather than my default browser Firefox!

In the "desktop" version of Outlook, with some HTML-formatted messages, you may find a link in the message header to "view it in a web browser":

What that feature does is generate an MHTML file and launch it in your default browser for .mhtml / .mht files. Firefox doesn't handle this type of file, so your default browser for those might be Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge.
