In 24.04, I installed Nautilus 1:46.2-0ubuntu0.3 and nautilus-sendto is installed.
I installed Thunderbird and Claws-Mail, the former being the default in Settings -> Apps -> Default Apps. I opened Nautilus, right clicked one folder, and observed that no "email" option existed in the context menu. Then I right clicked a file, and observed that an "email" option existed in the cpontext menu. Then I changed the default to Claws-Mail and right clicked a folder in Nautilus. I observed that an "email" option existed in the context menu. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-noble ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-noble -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2072569 Title: Sending a folder won't work with nautilus-sendto and a snapped mail client Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in nautilus source package in Noble: Fix Committed Bug description: [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.
