Hi,

I am trying to use the "My_Pictures > {select picture) > File and Folder
Tasks > E-Mail this file" option from XP. ( I wish to simply email pictures
at an appropriate size/scale).
When I do this it goes so far as to ask about resizing and show a send mail
window but no requests for destination address are made and no email appears
to be sent.
I have confirmed that OE 6 is my default email client and I have tried the
Start / Run and type: "REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL" approach but this doesn't work
either.
I have messenger installed which I understand could also be a cause but that
has not solved the issue.
My last best guess is related to something I have found on the web that
indicates I might need an MAPI ISP interface but I do not know how to do
this.
One site suggested there was an enable MAPI checkbox in OE options > General
but I can't see this in my installation.
My ISP is NTL (uk) and I also have a hotmail address, if that helps.
Any suggestions?

Hi Tom,

Can you check the size and date of your sendmail.dll file and let us know
what that is. There are a couple of KB articles that give various problems
with either resizing, or launching the email app when sendmail.dll is
corrupt or has been replaced.
