About this service

Outlook Is a popular email client, and with its Box.net integration, you can use it to easily send files directly from your Box.net account. A sharing link is placed into an email that you can edit and send normally.

To use Outlook, right click on a file and select “Send with Outlook.” The client will open up and will contain a link to your file. Add recipients and edit the text of the message, then send it. This OpenBox action also works with Mozilla Thunderbird and Mac Mail clients.

Available Actions

  • Send with Outlook: Add a link to this file in an email via Outlook. You will be able to edit the email before sending it to contacts. Works with Mozilla Thunderbird, too.

I have a Mac OSX 10.5.2 and I use Apple Mail and Firefox 2.0.0.14. I added this service and it worked fine as expected putting the URL into an Apple Mail new email. :)

I am also using Firefox 2.0.0.14 on WinXP - When sending links to Outlook - files with spaces in the file name do not work properly. It will put the first word of the file name in the subject, but nothing else, no link.

I just want to thank Box.net support staff for getting in touch with me by email to offer help on this. For some reason 'mailto' links don't seem to work with my Firefox setup. This service works fine within IE on my PC and I thank you for it.

Hi, Aaron. I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.14 on Windows XP. It's possible I'm missing something really obvious here. Help welcomed.

Hello. This would be a neat service. I have only Thunderbird installed and nothing happens when I click to 'send by Outlook'. Am I missing a trick?
