Windows fax and scan grayed out forward as email

[ispud]

I need to email scanned copies of different things. I can scan them ok, but I am having a hard time emailing them. I have tried setting up my gmail account in the scan setting window with no luck. With another program (paper port) I could just drag the file into the email - this won't work in the windows fax and scan program.

Thanks for help - in advance.

My guess is it's looking for the Mail App and or Outlook.

Have you tried saving the scanned images to a file, and then simply attaching that file to your email? Drag and drop is application specific
