Cannot send file by email using unity dash

[Helder Meneses]

When searching for file using unity dash, and after finding the file, and clicking with the right button of the mouse and select email, nothing happens.

This occurs when setting other email client as default other than thunderbird in system settings. Using the thunderbird as default email software, and proceding like described, behaves like expected.

i installed the evolution email client and configured as default email client.

It sould send email using other email client like evolution other than thunderbird.

I use the System Settings to change my default email client and it works fine, even using the command-line MUA 'mutt'.

How were you configuring your default email client?

Hi,

i changed the email client in system settings, but it was in 13.04. Now, maybe it is working, i'm no longer using ubuntu, i'll try install ubuntu 14.10 in a virtual machine, and reproduce using the same steps...
