Everything that is not closely related to QM but may be interesting to QM users. Cool software, web pages, programming/scripting in other languages, etc.

If you wanted to do this with files...you could write QM program set up with SMTP settings of an account that receives the name of an attachment and sends email.

You'd put that executable in windows sendto folder. Then you could right click on the file and select a recipient from the send to... options.

Could write a dialog that prompts for subject and body text.

TheVig,

I stumbled into your article. Kindly share your QM macro so I can absorb quicker. Thank you for sharing.
My emails are either using yahoo.com or gmail.com or does it matter?

Sincerely,

Josh

Josh,

I never actually wrote the macro, it was a hypothetical response to the article.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310270 (in QM:
run "$sendto$\"
)
http://quickmacros.com/forum/viewtopic. ... l+settings (Three pages lots of examples)
Don't forget that _command will be the variable passed to the function from windows.

Thanks,
Jimmy Vig
