Hello,
 
I am running Adobe 8 Standard on a Windows XP SP2 machine. From Adobe, I want to go File->Email to attach the current PDF to an email. The email client is Lotus Notes 6.5.4. However, my system keeps prompting me to set up a profile for MS Outlook Exchange. I have some XP machines on which this will work. It appears to be related to an Icon in the Control Panel -> Mail and Fax. This is the only link I can find between those machines that work and those that don't. If a PC has the 'Mail and Fax' Icon, the Adobe email button won't work and vice versa. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling Adobe, MS Office 97 and 2000, and I was unable to uninstall the 'Mail and Fax' option on the Control Panel. I've run out of ideas. Any thoughts?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 8, Windows

Acrobat is supposed to use the default email client through MAPI. I don't know the specifics on Lotus Notes but it does not sound like it is setup as a MAPI client. Here's a link to an article on changing the default mail client.
