I spent quite a lot of time finding a simple useful solution before (the one that is broken now). It was a w32 only solution so I guess it has been broken by someone who does not understand the general nature of the OS interface. > I don't think (but I don't know) that whatever enabled `report-emacs-bug'= to > work previously was Outlook-specific.

But I doubt that it w= as > something Outlook-specific. No, the mail client has nothing to do with it. The solution was general enough to use any mail client on w32.
