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 Released

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.
