Send to "Mail Recipient" Functionality That’s New to Me

I came across a feature of Windows XP file explorer that I hadn’t seen before today. Normally when I want to sent files to someone I don’t browse to the file and use the "Send To Mail Recipient" option. I’m not following my own advice still of reversing my email composition.

Today I was doing some work and my brother wanted me to email him the social media icon graphics I’d created for a website client. Since I was sending a large group of files I just opened the folder and clicked on all of the files he requested.

I then selected the "Send To Mail Recipient" option and an email was immediately created with all of the files attached. What was new to me, and something I really liked was that it also generated boilerplate text to include in the email. Including a text list of all the files attached.

I think this was a very helpful feature to have and I’m not sure why I never realized this existed or I hadn’t seen it before now.

What I’d like to figure out and learn how to do now would be to change the text that’s included by default in the boilerplate text.
