Description p.rosenberg 2011-08-28 12:09:49 UTC 
Version:           1.7.0 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                MS Windows

The menu command Image->Email Images... normally opens a new email and attaches the selected images to it. Under windows this does not work when "default" is used as email program. If directly "thunderbird" is selected as email program it does not work either.
This behavior is reproducible with Windows 7 installed natively and in a virtual box under Ubuntu.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
After selecting one or multiple images and executing the menu command Image->Email Images... a dialog box is shown. There I choose Mail on the left and "Default" for "Mail program". The click to "OK" opens a new email in Thunderbird but does not attach any images. The new email does also not contain any body or subject.


Expected Results:  
The menu command Image->Email Images... normally opens a new email and attaches the selected images to it.

Yes, the behaviour is exactly the same. The only difference is, that he command
is in the menu export now.
