[SOLVED] XFCE + Thunar: "Send to" mail recipient doesn't work

Hi all,
I'm not able to use the "Send to" -> "Mail recipient" Thunar's feature. Right-clicking on a file (or a group of files) and selecting the option, the following error is returned:
Failed to execute default Mail Reader. Input/output error.
I use Thunderbird as e-mail client (correctly configured into the "Preferred applications"), but the same happens with Sylpheed too, so I think this isn't an application-related issue.
Any hints?

I found the following:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7021?opened=834&status[0]=
It's not very clear to me if this is an Arch or Thunar or Exo bug, anyway installing 'perl-uri' works for me.
Marking as SOLVED

  • Right Click- Send To- Mail Recipient has disappeared!

    I have Thunderbird v24.6.0 with Windows 7. I used to have the option to right click on a picture choose Send To->Mail Recipient then choose the size of the picture, etc. The Mail Recipient option is no longer available in the Send To menu. I have checked shell:sendto and the MAPIMAIL file is still there and correct, but it doesn't work.
    I have added a shortcut to Thunderbird in the Send To folder and I now have this as a right click option, but doing it this way I cannot choose the picture size (which is why I used this process to begin with).
    Is there any way to get the original Mail Recipient option back?

    That menu is part of the Windows operating system and has nothing to do with Thunderbird.
    Maybe this article will help you.

  • Mail created with "Send to Mail Recipient" disappear and are not sent

    I have a small setup with a SBS 2011 server (Exchange 2010) 10 users with Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013.
    One user is trying to send mails with attachments to his college´s
     but they are never send, are not shown in sent items and can not be found on the server.
    The user right click on a PDF file and press "Send to Mail Recipient" Outlook opens his mail is entered into the receiver (internal receiver) and press send. The mail do not show up and as mentioned even in sent items.
      I then try to do the same but send through the address book in Outlook / Exchange and these messages appears as they should.
    One week later, the disappeared mails suddenly appears in the college’s mailboxes and it turns out there are some mails to external addresses as well, which were not sent until a week. All messages are now in sent mail but they have not
    appeared anywhere else before.
    I did some tests with the "send to" function which also had the mails disappearing - those mails has not turned up until now. (a week ago)
    Now the user (AND all colleagues)  are very nervous that something is wrong with their system and the mail does not arrive.
    It is only 1 user this has affected but he is responsible for the majority of sales in this company and they are very afraid that they are not responding correctly to large customers.
    Is there anyone who can help with debugging in such a case?
    I have tried repairing Outlook, started in safe mode, checked the mail server for hanging mails but nothing shows any errors.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Have the user logon OWA and send the attachment, will this issue persist?
    Please also confirm if the issue exists when inserting an attachment when composing a new email isntead of using the "Send to Mail Recipient" function.
    Since only one user has been affected, use MFCMAPI to find if the message is stuck in the user's mailbox:

  • Messages stuck in outbox when using "Send to Mail recipient" and outlook is closed

    A user who uses RPC over https all the time on his desktop in the office. In general
    he has no problem to send/receive emails. But when he tried to send a File through right click - > send to -> Mail recipient , New Email window opens and He changes
    the subject and add receipt and send email when outlook is close. The email stuck in outbox.
    any idea and how to fix it?
    Thanks in advance. 

    Hi,
    As what Roady says, it is an expected behavior. This is because the
    “spooler” which is something that manages the MAPI transports is working when Outlook is running. So when you sending messages when Outlook is not running, there is no spooler running, and so nothing is going to send your mail. The next time you launch Outlook,
    you will see the mail in the Outbox.
    For more information about this behavior, please refer to A trip back in time—the evolution of Outlook part of the following link:

  • Send to - Mail recipient does not attach files on new mail

    I'm browsing a network share containing some .txt files.
    I have full access to this share (in fact I'm the Owner of these .txt files).
    If right-click one of these and select "Send to - Mail recipient" Outlook open a new-message window but the .txt file is not attached.
    I think that the problem occours only with files over network share because if files are on my local unit i don't have problems.
    How can I fix?
    O.S. Windows 7 Pro 64-bit - Office 2010 Standard
    Thanks.

    Send to - Mail recipient function is deponds on the simple MAPI:

    Please run "fixmapi" in the Windows Search bar and press Enter and then check if the issue still persists. Thanks.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
    This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
    Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.

    Ok after nearly going crazy I read something about someone having a problem with a program related to fonts not being installed. I started up font book and now my problem is miraculously resolved... This is good and bad.

    Hi Gwing17,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that all of your iPhone sounds are working as expected except for the Sent Mail sound. I understand that you have already changed the Sent Mail sound as well as reset your iPhone and the issue persists. In this situation, to isolate the issue, I would first recommend backing up your iPhone to either iTunes or iCloud.
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    After you have backed up, I would recommend restoring your iPhone and setting it up as new to test the Sent Mail sound. If the sound works as expected, try restoring from your backup and test the sound again. Please let me know if the issue returns or if the sound still does not work when you set up your iPhone as a new device.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Joe
