Hi Alan\The "To" field to be auto-populated by the Contact's email address was not as part of the initial design. But sounds like what a basic design should include. I have added this as a enhancement request on our trac list. The other issue you noticed with Internal Mail Composer, is a known issue and already on trac. <br>
<br>Following are the links to the above mentioned two trac tickets:-<br><br><a href="http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/6030">http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/6030</a><br><a href="http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/6825">http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/6825</a><br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
Open the Detail View of a Quote.<br>
<br>
Choose "Send Email with PDF".<br>
<br>
Why doesn't the "To:" field of the email automatically contain the<br>
Contact Name's email address?<br>
<br>
This occurs in both 5.1.0 and 5.2.0.<br>
<br>
Should I record this a bug or is this "by design"? If it's by design,<br>
why? It seems to me for most times this feature creates additional work<br>
(clicks) and introduces the likelihood of error, e.g. Adding the wrong<br>

<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
Al<br>
<br>
PS - I also just noticed that I have "Internal Mail Composer" set to<br>
"no". So shouldn't the above option open my OS setting's default email<br>
client rather than the Internal Mail Composer?<br>
