no desktop or internet email app for submit button

I need pdf form completed and emailed back to me with a submit button. Some people don't use a desktop or internet email application, but use a default program like Thunderbird, how to get the submit button to work for everyone? I would rather not make them save the pdf and then attach it to an email. Thanks, Wina

Thunderbird is a "Desktop email Application".

See the article to learn how to set up the default mail app for Acrobat/Reader.

Thanks. For people that will be using the form submit button, and have Vista or Window 7 & generally have no MAPI installed, is there a work around or something I can add to the pdf to solve this problem?

You will have to install the MAPI otherwise you can't use this feature.
It's generally included in older Outlook setups on newer ones.
You find more information about the MAPI Support of Thinderbird here
