Interesting. When I read this the first time, I only considered the approach of first opening an email interface (for instance, Gmail in Browse) and then selecting a file from the Journal to attach to it. I hadn't considered wanting to send the document I'm *currently working on* to someone else as an attachment. One reason for this might be due to the fact that we *do* plan to add a "send to..." option to the palette/toolbar for each activity, to allow direct file transfers between people running Sugar. Perhaps there is a place in here somewhere for "mail to..." as well? Or, perhaps under send to it's possible to select an individual, or a group, or an *activity* (!) which could then take some action based upon what it was given. By selecting an email activity, it could generate a new draft message and automatically attach the file. - Eben _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
