P: Email not working-External error has occurred: ?:0 Attempt to index field 'font'( a nil value )

Ever since the V10 update my email out of LR Classic has quit working, but instead returns the above error message.  I have reset the preferences, deleted and readded my email client to no avail.  Still does not work and from the forum, it looks like there are lots of nil value errors happening.

Same issue with a gmail email export.  If I email using Outlook it works, but I cannot embed photos just attach

This is what happens with Monopoly.  In the past, Adobe thoroughly beta-tested releases but that ended.   Just hate to see people waste their time going through the elaborate charade I had to deal with over the last two days.   I will keep you guys posted as to what if anything I hear.

You would think Adobe  might want to jump on the forum and help out , instead they have David  troubleshooting for everyone for free. :-]

LR 10.0  dazzled on the main stage but a big  bust at home.

Dont bother calling Adobe Technical help.  Did absolutely no good and even with a follow up today they just had me repeat things that in no way solve the problem

Yes you can--Access in Creative Cloud--has a list of previous versions just install. Actually this is what they are suggesting over at Adobe.

I do not think you can revert to older version once it updated to newer one, if you know how would appreciate knowing .

Thanks

It's a bug in the program.  Nothing will fix it until the engineers get out a new version.  Best thing is to revert back to the previous version that worked.
