Re: can't send page by email or send link by email from IE8. windows mail default client

[Crosspost to IE General]

What happens when you try to Send a page or link via email?

Nothing happens when you use the Send To - Mail Recipient option in a
Windows Vista computer:

i will try checking the associations out but pretty sure i have done that
already and got the same results i have now...doesn't make it work.

if i use the "email with windows live" and other stuff that was nicely
placed on my computer with ie8 and i never use... i would have traded all
that crap for simple color claibration since i spend 90% of the time on here
working raw files with my nikon d700.

anyhow i did the fix suggestesd and rebooted, still no work thruough ie8.

thanx

And if you're using IE8 64-bit, does the behavior persist?

PS: You /chose/ to install the Windows Live stuff.
