"Send to" for KDE


Hi
in Windows there is a right-button option "send to/ mail recipient" . I looked in Kde but found nothing like this. There is copy to location but no mail client just folders.

Is there a way to enable such a thing in kde?

Thanks .

Try to enter the path to thunderbird there and see if that works.

The name of the menu options can differ as I have german kde and freely translated ...
