Subject: Send To Mail Recipient Not Working (Windows 7 and Notes 8.5.1 FP2)

Feedback Type: Problem

Product Area: Notes Client

Technical Area: Functionality

Platform: Windows

Release: 8.5.1

Reproducible: Always

We started to roll out Windows 7 (some 32 bit and some 64) and Notes 8.5.1 Fix Pack 2 and have found that approximately 50% of the computers have a problem with the windows feature where you can attach a file to an New e-mail from the file system: "Send to >> Mail Recipient".

We have compared PCs that work to those that don't work, specifically "Default Programs" >> "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults" then chose "Custom", >> "Choose a default e-mail program" = Lotus Notes. Also compared registry settings relating to MailTo functionality and they all appear to be the same, no differences from the PCs that work vs those that do not?

On the PCs where this feature does not work, you receive this message, "..no email program associated...":

Are we missing something? Anyone else having this issue ? Could really use some help here, thought maybe it would be fixed in the latest Fix Pack 2 ?

Here' a shot of the setting in Set Program Access:
