Taiday,

A sure way to tell that you are putting shortcuts in the correct sendto
folder is to type shell:sendto in the Run dialog (open start menu and then
click Run... start menu item).

Normal files added to the sendto folder won't appear on the SendTo menu.
You mentioned using a shortcut so this should appear.

I hope this helps,

Why not just type sendto. The Shell: protocol is unnecessary as sendto is a sub folder of the user's profile.

Hello,

I have problem, too. when I right click, send to, mail recipient, the mail
window does not pop up like it used to.

What can I do? Any help would be appreciated.
