Send to Functionality lost when right clicking on files/images etc

[Gel]

I seem to have lost ability on my T'Bird e mail to right click on a
document etc and to use SEND TO feature, to send to e mail.
Not sure when I lost, but had T Bird update tonight.

I downloaded prog to easily add items to SEND TO context menu, and
it's set up to point to T Bird.exe file;
perhaps that's wrong location?
Am running Vista 32 Premium.

Any advice appreciated. :)

I've also lost the ability to open mailto: links from Firefox with
Thunderbird on Linux, I wonder if it has anything to do with this...
Ludo, does it ring a bell to you?

Sounds like simple mapi is broken. I unfortunately don't remember which
registry key to look for. Please take the time to read
http://kb.mozillazine.org/MAPI_Support and let use know if you've solved
your issue. If that doesn't help then please file a bug.

I don't think so we don't hook mapi32.dll anywhere on linux.

On linux i'd run gconf and check that te settings in gconf are corrects.

Not sure if fault was in Vista or T Bird settings.

There is a Thunderbird Knowledge Base article that describes how to
set the default mail client on various platforms:
