Can't email photo from "Mydocument" file.

Mar 12, 2004 7:29PM PST

I am running AOL8 and Windows XP.

I'm trying to email a photo from "Mydocument" file, i can get as far as "SEND TO" then "MAIL RECIPIENT", then i can make the file smaller, but thats it. I can't get any further than that. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Please give more details:

what is the size of the photo file ?
What e-mail clients do you have ?
"Can't e-mail photo" does not give any clues to your problem- what happened ? Any error messages ?
Instead of 'send to' from MyDocument, have you tried 'inserting' or send as an attachement from the e-mail client ?

Re:Can't email photo from ... AOL issue.

AOL may have broken this feature since their email client doesn't behave like other email clients. Their tech support should have answered this one.

PS. Why did I write "may have"? No it's broken. AOL will have to fix it.

Do you have AOL set as your default e-mail account? Do you have AOL set as your default internet connection? If not, change them and try again. I may be wrong but, I don't think that feature is compatible with AOL.
