Create a "Send To" option for Opera Mail?

I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I would like to have an entry in the Send To menu (accessed by right-clicking a file in Explorer) that would create a new mail message in Opera mail with the selected file as an attachment.

I have a shortcut that creates a new e-mail by generating the command "C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera\opera.exe" . This opens a new blank Opera Mail message. (I also have shortcuts with the addresses of various family members after , which creates new messages automatically addressed to them.) I tried placing the basic blank-e-mail shortcut in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo. This does create an entry in the Send To menu, but when I select it I just get a blank e-mail in one Opera tab and the file opened in another Opera tab; it doesn't attach the file to the e-mail.

What I'm looking for, then, is a command-line switch for Opera that would both create an e-mail message and attach a file to it. There is not one listed here; but then that list does not even include , which I discovered just by taking a guess. Does anyone have more detailed knowledge of these switches?

Thanks.

Opera doesn't support any command line switches that will compose a new message *and* add an attachment.

Opera also doesn't support the "right-click on file -> send to -> mail recipient" option in windows to compose a new message and attach that file. To work around it, you have to use <http://www.joonis.de/content/MAPI4OperaMAPIExtensionForOpera>, but it's not free.

Thanks, Burnout! This would be a minor convenience for me, not a necessity, certainly not worth paying for. I have to agree with you, though, "Opera's built-in mail client isn't sufficient for many users."
