Dear Maintainer,

I've selected KMailservice as Email program in the Gnome control center.
However sending files via the context menu's "Send to" is not working. I
found that the 'Exec' entry in
/usr/share/gnome/applications/kde4/kmailservice.desktop
misses the full path to kmailservice:
  Exec=kmailservice %u
changing this to
  Exec=/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kmailservice %u
fixes the problem.

I couldn't find any package containing this file, so I guess this file is
generated automatically. I hope you can fix this in a future release of
Wheezy, which is working great. Thank you very much for that!

Regards,
Eike

Ah, misconception on program name :)
kmailservice is not "KMail service" but "K mailservice" (as in KDE
mailservice).

Basically a helper (part of kdelibs5-plugins) that checks which e-mail program
is configured by the user and then calls it.
Since you are in a non-KDE workspace environment you might want to configure
KMail directly.

Cheers,
Kevin

to the executable in the .desktop file resolved it.

More background: I've updated to Wheezy and changed the DE from KDE to
Gnome but wanted to keep KMail as email program.
