I was thinking of writing something like this but you've already done what I wanted and more! The standard nautilus-send-to extension is no good for multiple attachments; I have tried several alternative scripts but your addin is the only one which works for multiple attachments. Congratulations.

Hello,

This is just exactly what I need.
I believe that this extension should be the default setup as it is very effective and easy to use.

Well done !

Hi,

Great plugin. I installed on Ubuntu 9.10 but the images are not reduced. Any requirements missing ?

Thanks!

Hi Razer,
I really need your help as your tool is so great and helpful. Unfortunately the "send by email" does not appear in the context menu when I installed mailpictures in Ubuntu 11.10. I reinstalled without any success. I can start the tool with "synapse" or the Unity dash, typing "send by email", but it is not helpful as I can not select the pictures to send. Any tips?
