How to mail a picture/photo?

Post by DevBoyLars » Fri May 10, 2013 10:40 am

Hi there,
how can I attach or include a taken picture/photo in an email (revMail)?

Hi Lars,

unfortunately "revMail" doesn't support attachments!
On the Mac you could use an AppleScript, no idea about Windows.


Best

Uff..... -.-

So there's no option to transfer a taken picture via email on a mobile phone? O_O

Maybe on another way or with a plugin?

Yes, this can be done on iOS, but you were talking about "revMail", which is a desktop-only command :cool:

I'll try it later at home and hopefully this works :)


Why are so many commands in two versions? iPhone... and mobile...? Isn't it the same?

I think this has "historic" reasons, since the iOS version came out first.
Both commands should be synonym now, for mental reasons you should stick to "mobile..." ;-)
