Title: Issues w/ email connectivity, can't "send"
Post by: asatch on April 19, 2011, 03:45:56 pm

    Exactly how do I link "Send To" to my Gmail mail program that I'm using in all my browsers?  Brief instructions advise to go to "Default Programs" and associate email program, however in my Windows7,  neither Media Center15 or Media Jukebox14 show up in the pre-existing list of "Default Programs"  (neither does Gmail).  What am I missing??  How can I get email connectivity so I can send songs etc. from Media Center/Jukebox??  Thank  you.

The web-based interface to Gmail is just a web page.  It will never appear under "Default Programs". 

To Send To, you need an email application (eg. a program such as Thunderbird, Outlook, Windows Mail, etc.) on your system.  These applications use the Windows MAPI interface, and MC can send to those.  You would configure your mail application to send via gmail's SMTP servers.

Seems there are duplicate threads on this.  Maybe we should use this thread instead: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=63668.0 instead. (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=63668.0 instead.)
