There are a lot of people that want to know how to get Send – To mail recipient as an option when they right click in a document.

Here is one solution.

First, the installation of an email program is required.
Opera™ has been chosen for this tutorial. (The Browser -It’s free.)

Opera browser |Free download.

This browser works well with programs such as, Word or Word Pad.
When Opera was installed it was configured to use a personal Gmail account; however, it can be configured to use any Gmail account.

  2. Navigate to: Set Default Programs
  3. In the menu to the left, click Opera Web browser.
  4. Then click Choose defaults for this program.

Next, in the Set associations for a program scroll down; put a check in the MAPI box. Click Save.

Here are some examples of WordPad:

Click on File, then click Send in email.

For sending files or images, a single right click is all that is needed; then, select Send to> Mail recipient. (A .png File was chosen for this example).
