1. does Foxit forums work with GMAIL. Reason; I tried joining two days ago with my default email program.I never recieved a confirmation email.I did check my spam filter, Last night I joined with my secondary email account and within minutes I received confirmation. I prefer to use my GMAIL.
I also did not get a confirmation email to my Yahoo account and I did not find it in the spam folder, but the user ID I selected started working the next day.
2. I tried to send a PDF by email, when I hit the email button,it tries to open outlook.not my default email-Gmail. Minor problems- excellent program.
Any application sending email will most likely use your system's default email client. Gmail access through webmail cannot be done this way. Go to Internet Options and click on the Programs tab. What is listed in the line for email? It is probably Outlook. Since Gmail allows POP and IMAP access now, you should set it up in your email reading client, either Outlook or Outlook Express(I prefer Thunderbird).
See http://mail.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=12806 for steps on setting up your client for IMAP or http://mail.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=12805 for tips on using POP to access your Gmail.
Good luck,
Doug
