Send to destination missing

I am using Vista Premium home and Vista Ultmate. Using Home I can right click
on a file or document and select "Send to" and choice of HD plus MAIL
RECEIPITENT,plus ohter destinations.
In ultmante the Send to" functions appear but MAIL RECEIPTIENT is missing.
How do I change this?
Thank you

Re: Send to destination missing

Click Start, type shell:sendto and press ENTER. This opens the SendTo folder of your user profile. Create a new text document (Right-click - New - Text document). Rename the text file to "Mail Recipient.MAPIMail". See if the "Mail Recipient" entry is restored to the "Send To" menu.

Note that after renaming the file, the .MAPIMail extention hides automatically.

Ramesh,

I have the same problem as above and have tried your solution but no joy.

I am using Windows Home Premium with Outlook 2007 and have Mail Recipient in
my Send To folder, but it does not appear when I right click a file.

Hope you can offer some advice

Re: Send to destination missing

Brian,

Click Start, type the following command and press {ENTER}

cmd /c dir "%appdata%\microsoft\windows\sendto" | Clip

The directory listing is now copied to Clipboard. Paste the information along with your reply.

Re: Send to destination missing

Thanks Brian. Will look into it. Meanwhile, can you check if the problem is seen in other user accounts also? (You may create a test user account for this purpose.)

That info would be extremely helpful.

Re: Send to destination missing

Ramesh,

Thanks for all your help.

Whilst surfing I came across this site

http://forum.worldstart.com/showthread.php?t=68166

and applied the "fred2.zip" registry tweak (backed mine up first !) and my
Send To now works fine.

Thanks again.

Re: Send to destination missing

Brian,

Yes, I had sendmail.dll (and another solution) thing in mind. FYI here is my own article (originally written for XP) here:
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/sendtomail.htm

Anyway, I'm glad the problem is fixed
