I hate it. I click it by mistake and as I don't have any e-mail client installed it opens IE.

Why wouldn't you save the image and add it as an attachment instead ?

This is an image board you dumb fucking ant..

i work as level2 troubleshooting at a law firm, and i want to guess that 90% of people (out of around 500 in our offices) use this feature

fucks with the outgoing email filters and causes mapi crashes so i always ask the user to show me how they crashed it and i've seen this used often

>intentionally breaking application compatibility on windows
a whole lot of old shit will use IEs rendering engine to serve in-application HTMLs and such, and will crap out if it's not available.

>>61387322
disabling IE in windows doesn't remove the engine, so won't break anything

I use it occasionally. Sometimes I find a MEME and send it to someone. It is honestly more convenient than saving the picture to a location, accessing that location from whatever fucking stupid service, pressing post and shit. With this I press send as e-mail and press send after putting in a name from my contacts. Easy as FUCK.

Why wouldn't you use an e-mail client?

>>61387227
Seems like Google Chrome makes it more difficult to send a picture in an e-mail.

>Why wouldn't you use an e-mail client?
I don't really use e-mail. I di have portable Thunderbird, but it's not really installed, the OS doesn't know its existence until I open it, so no associations.
