Description Davide Ferrari 2005-01-07 11:54:59 UTC 
Version:           0.7.1 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When I want to directly email an image (or more) and I am prompted with the choose client dialog, there's a bug happening. In fact, the only radio button that actually let edit the path input field is Thunderbird. So, for example, if I want to use KMail as my mailer, by default it gives me error complaining it cannot find thunderbird installed (in fact, I do not have it installed).
So I have to select the thunderbird radio button, put the KMail executable path in the inut field below and select again KMail (which greys the input field). In this way, it works nicely.

Anyway, I'd like to see this config option in a config menu and not in the "send item" menu, as I'd like to see digika aware of the default KDE mail client...but if you prefer I'll open another bug (wish) for this.
