I did that and I have Outlook 2003 and my send to no longer works for
Outlook and pictures
(jpeg, etc). I've gone to the Sendto file and did all the suggestions in MS
knowledge based including playing with the mail recipient file. When I click
a picture and say send to mail recipient I get the window asking me if I
want to keep the original or make my pictures smaller but then after
that...nothing. Outlook doesn't add the picture to an email like a few weeks
ago. Send to doesn't work with any file that I want to attach to Outlook.

Any ideas?
