6.3.0.4 includes most of the changes I suggested, but still fails to
operate properly - it switches the focus to the email client, but fails
to create a new email.
I thnk the problem may be at senddoc line 293,
MAILTO="${MAILTO:-}${MAILTO:+&}attach="$(echo "file://$2" | "${URI_ENCODE}")
My email client (Claws-mail) fails to handle the "file://" syntax, as do
some other email clients.
My suggestion (lines 269-276 of my proposed revision) was to omit the file://
(at least for xdg-email), so that the command then is
MAILTO="${MAILTO:-}${MAILTO:+&}attach="$(echo "$2" | "${URI_ENCODE}")
That then works; though I found it advisable to omit the ampersand in the mail
command (can't immediately remember why, sorry!), so that that command became
simply
${MAILER} "${MAILTO}"
