<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Here is a
solution to the Mail a web page from the browser(or adobe) problem that
libraries may face where Patrons may want to mail a page they are on to
themselves for future reference. Rather then having to allow them to send
mail from your own server you can set the default mail client in Windows to be
Yahoo or Gmail with the below two utilities from Chris Wood. Then instruct your
users to use their gmail or yahoo account (whichever utility you choose to
install) to send mail from. I picked up the tip on this from a
twitter from Paul Thurrot.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The download
and information page from Yattach to use Yahoo as the default mail client is:</span>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Yattach
and Gattach add-ons allow you to send email via either Yahoo or Gmail directly
from</span> <br>

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This allows
you to remove any local email programs like Outlook and Outlook Express to
prevent users from saving and receiving emails directly to your
workstations. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Drawback of
course is that you have to encourage patrons to open a Yahoo or Gmail account
depending on which plug-in you load, meaning your library has to commit to one
or the other but it will reduce spam coming into your domain if you do this. I
tend to prefer Gmail over Yahoo because it opens more types of attachments and
lets you even view them as a webpage if you like. I believe that Google has
finally removed the requirement to have a cell phone to sign up for a Gmail
account making it that much easier and having a Google ID allows you access to
all of the other Google Apps(writer, spreadsheet, etc) that your users will
benefit from anyways. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
