I need to put in an email button in a multimedia presentation.

Nowadays many people don't use Outlook etc, but only use online email accounts.

I've put in an email action, but just get an Outlook error message (I've no doubt got the remains of it from 10 years ago)

I've looked through old posts on this, but didn't see an answer - is there an easy way round this?

Thanks, Linda

I would think use PHP or something else and make a mail form, or create several buttons that launch links to popular webmail sites and then go from there.

For instance, Yahoo mail (http://mail.yahoo.com/).

You could also do a web search for command line e-mail programs and see if something like that would work for you.

I'm sure others much smarter will have better solutions for you. Just some random thoughts.
