Hello Mike,
The "mail recipient" menu item should have been added by default to the
SendTo menu in XP. You might check to see if it is in the SendTo folder
under "default user" or another account on the system and just copy it from
the folder under the other user account to the folder in your friend's user
account. Navigate into "documents and settings" on the local drive and open
a different user account. Press "S" until you find the SendTo folder and
press enter to open it. Find the "mail recipient" choice if available and
copy it to the clipboard. You can then go back to the user account where
the "mail recipient" menu choice was missing and open it. Open the SendTo
folder and paste the file from the clipboard.
To add "desktop" and "mail recipient" to the SendTo Menu you can do the
following
1. Press Windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box.
2. Type "Shell:SendTo" (without the quotes) and press the enter key.
3. Make sure that nothing is selected. Bring up the "file" menu and go into
the "new" submenu. Use down arrow to the "shortcut" choice and press enter
key. .
4. Use tab key to move to the "browse" button and press spacebar.
In the tree structure that appears use up arrow to the top and you should
find "desktop." Use tab key to the "OK button and press enter key.
5. Use tab key to the "next" button and press enter.
6. Name the new item with the name you want to have used for the item in the
SendTo menu, use tab key to move to the "finish" button and press enter key.
A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on the
Send To menu.
If you can not copy the "mail recipient" choice from any other user account
then you can create the menu choice as follows:
1. use windows key with the letter "R" to bring up the Run dialog box.
2. Type in "Shell:SendTo" without the quotes and then press enter key.
3. Go into the File menu and then into the "new" submenu and use down arrow
to the "text document" choice. Press enter key on that choice.
4. Rename the text file to Mail Recipient.MAPIMail
5. Answer "yes" when you are told that changing a file extension might make
the file unusable . After renaming the file the .MAPIMail extension might
be hidden but the "Mail recipient" entry should now be in the SendTo menu.
Again, if you can find the "mail recipient" file in another user's "SendTo"
folder, copying and pasting it would probably be faster.
Take care.
