Using this extension in MS Edge. Works flawlessly. Most importantly, it produces a URL which is live and clickable (unlike some other methods which produce a non-clickable link). Thank you

Hi jkl Thanks so much for your generosity. I am loving this. It would be nice if I could specify the default recipient (I hacked the code to default to my email as that is what I am sending to 90% of the time) and optionally include page attributes or a text extract. If I had one request it would be that the send button in gmail close the popup window like the discard draft button does, but perhaps that is more up to google than you. I am using the review for feedback as the captcha hidemail on the support tab no longer works. Thanks again Dale

It does not work. 1. It does not mail the URL that you are reading, only links in the text. 2. It does not open my favorite email client (Thunderbird.) I had to put it on gmail 3. It does not fill the title of the email. All in all: useless.

Used this for a long time but since moved to new job and email/browser setup (Outlook), no longer works - even though I have chosen 'default email client' in options.
