"E-mail this file" option in OE 6

I am trying to use the option "email this file" from the file and folder
tasks menu in windows explorer. It seems to work on most file types except
the one I have been using the most- .wmf = windows metafile.

Is there somewhere I need to change a setting or is this file type not
supported?

Also, if I reply to a reply, do I hit "reply group" or "reply"? ....yes 4
times.

Thank you,

Steven

You might want to post to the Windows XP newsgroup instead of the Outlook
Express one. Someone may come in with an answer but if not, you may find it
faster there. I would imagine it's just a file association problem but this
deals more with the Windows Shell than OE.

You also have a Right click, Send To then select Mail Recipient as well.


Also, if I reply to a reply, do I hit "reply group" or "reply"? ....yes
4 times.


Reply to group to reply to the post on the newsgroup and reply for it to be
emailed (unless they munge up the email address then it will return).

All right. I'll try posting there. I am also not able to do "Send To then
select Mail Recipient as well." When I do this I see a box flash real quick
and then nothing happens.

Thanks a lot for responding.
