With this program "gAttach" you can change the default Microsoft Outlook application to an Gmail new message to send emails from almost all the applications featured to email documents you are working on. All Microsoft Office applications are included: Word, Excel, Powerpoint , etc..; Adobe Acrobat; Windows explorer; Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.

You only need to reassign Gmail as the default e-mail account instead Microsoft Outlook to send attached documents. At the moment of finishing the installation of gAttach you are asked to "Set gAttach as your default mail application" or at the moment of using the right-click button or any application featured to Send to Mail Recipient. If this is done you will receive an alert next time you open Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express telling you "Outlook is not your computer's default mail application. Would you like to set Outlook as your default mail application?" you have to unmark the option "Prompt me when Outlook is not my computer's default mail application" to stop receiving this alert.

One flexibilty of gAttach is that you can configure your user name and password to save time at the moment of sending an e-mail with the Options gAttach window just writing your username and password but it is not necessary because if not next time you open the Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox to go to your Gmail account you will be asked to log-in.

Instructions to attach files or documents:

From the application you are working on you have to choose the option Send to Mail Recipient and a window will pop-up telling "Saving your messages to "Drafts", for example if you are using Windows Explorer you have to right-click on the file you want to send choosing the option "Sent To - Mail Recipient". After doing this a new email is created on the draft folder of your Gmail account including the attachment you had selected. At the moment you launch Gmail you will see the draft’s folder with the message.
