Right now, Windows Live Mail is your default. If you installed Thunderbird, I think you have the option of making that the default.

I am quite surprised you do not get an Open With option when right clicking. Perhaps, you will with Shift+right click. Otherwise, to use a text editor, open the program, and then (in almost all cases) you can use Ctrl-O to initiate the Open File dialogue to select the file to be opened.
