Error messages when sending as an attachment to Outlook
Vista Business
Outlook 2007 - Exchange
Office 2003 without Outlook
When I try and send something as an attachment I receive error messages. The message is different depending on the sending program. Example: If I try and send a capture using Vista's Snipping Tool I get the following error "The snip could not be sent. Check that an email program is installed and try again". If I try and send via an attachment through Word and Excel I get this error "Word couldn't send because of MAPI failure: "Unspecified error".
Do you know what could be causing these errors and how to fix them?

I have tried both setting Outlook to the default mail program and trying when it's closed. I still get the same errors.
Turn off the UAC, and try again.
Also check the IE settings, lower the security level temporarily.
I hope this helps !

You might also try doing the send with outlook closed. Apparently, there are issues if outlook is open when you execute the command.
