Windows Phote Gallery Email

when using 'windows photo gallery' i wanted to send multiple photos to
someone and clicked the email button. chose the smaller size, it attached
them all, then asked for an email address. it said it doesnt support hotmail,
which emails will it support??

I have tried to e-mail photos through Windows Photo Gallery and can't get it
to work. When I click on e-mail photos it asks what size and then says it is
attaching photos but that is far as it goes. Does any one have any
suggestions? Mediacom is my internet provider

Go to Control Panel | Default Programs and make Windows Mail default and see
if that fixes it.

Hi Steve,

Do you know why emailing from Photo Gallery with Outlook 2007 as the default
mail client would not work? I have the same issue, if I set the default
client to be Windows Mail all is well. But, if I have it set to Outlook 2007
I have the same issue described by Judy above.

Best,
Todd

Hi Todd,

No clue. You can ask in an Outlook newsgroup. Maybe they can figure it out.

sorry,

Hi Steve,
Had big hope with your reply but only option I have in default is Windows
Mail(news). At windows mail option Mail is shown as not being the option and
I can't seem to change that. neither in the option or the default screen.

Did you go to Default Programs | Set Default Programs?

Click on WinMail on the left and then choose to make it default.

Thanks Steve,
Your info was spot on but like another post I had loaded Office 1997 Pro. I
had to reload Vista as the packaged Outlook deleted Windows Mail (Mail). It
appears only the Outlook component causes a problem. - fingers crossed
