can't send page by email or send link by email from IE8. windows mail default client

[Joe Schmoe]

on vista ultimate 64 bit but use 32 bit browser.

no issues on any part of computer except recently i have been un able to
send a page or link via email when using browser (IE8) from "tools"
tab....always was abler to do it before.

wonder if anyone else experiencing this as i have seen a few email updates
recently but i believe they were for junk mail settings and outlook.

i have office 2007 but have windows mail setup as default for all its file
types.

thanx

What happens when you try to Send a page or link via email?

Nothing happens when you use the Send To - Mail Recipient option in a
Windows Vista computer:

i will try checking the associations out but pretty sure i have done that
already and got the same results i have now...doesn't make it work.

if i use the "email with windows live" and other stuff that was nicely
placed on my computer with ie8 and i never use... i would have traded all
that crap for simple color claibration since i spend 90% of the time on here
working raw files with my nikon d700.

anyhow i did the fix suggestesd and rebooted, still no work thruough ie8.

And if you're using IE8 64-bit, does the behavior persist?

PS: You /chose/ to install the Windows Live stuff.

If you really mean "Outlook" you are in the wrong newsgroup.
The newsgroup to which you posted is for the Windows Mail program.
You are more likely to find Outlook experts in the Outlook newsgroup:

microsoft.public.outlook.general (via NNTP), or via the web:

You may also want to post that issue to the IE newsgroup:
