** Description changed: [Impact] Alongside nautilus, nautilus-sendto is installed by default in Noble. It is used when sending files via Nautilus' 'Email' context menu option for a selection. In contrast to a selection without folders, whereby Nautilus just passes their paths to the mailer for attaching, when the selection to be mailed contains a folder, Nautilus puts all the selected files in a zip under the /tmp directory and then passes that as an attachment. Snaps, however, do no have access to /tmp, which causes no file to be attached[1]. The proposal therefore removes the 'Email' option when a folder is in the selection [Test plan] + --> Main routine <-- + 1. Ensure that nautilus-sendto is installed. + 2. Install a snapped email client, say, Thunderbird, and set it as the default mail client. + 3. Open Nautilus. + 4. Select at least one folder. + 5. Right click on the selection. + * Expected: No 'Email' option must be available in the context menu. + + Run the main routine above but alter 4 to have no folder in the selection, just regular files. + * Expected: 'Email' option must be available in the context menu. + + Run the main routine above but alter 2 to use an unsnapped email client (e.g. claws-mail) as default. + * Expected: 'Email' option must be available in the context menu. + [Regression potential] Regressions would manifest in Nautilus' email integration, of which only the context menu 'Email' described above is known to the author.
