Issues with exporting to Email Client

I have Lightroom Classic.  And I use it on a Mac- MacOS Catalina (10.15.2).   I had set up an export to Email that would place pictures into my Mac Mail to send.  It no longer seems to work.  I don't remember how I set it up.   Does this still work?  Can someone provide directions?  

FYI:  Per some information I found on web- I do not have Lightroom in my System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Automation section.  

 

Thank you.

This happened to me as well. In Lightroom choose a photo to email. Go to Export and the dialogue box will appear. You will see at the bottom in Post-Processing the action ‘After Export’ with nothing selected. If you click the double arrows in the action you should see your Mail alias listed. Simply select it. The path below is where it resides in case you have to reset it 

 

user > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Lightroom > Export Actions > Mail Alias

 

Hope that helps.

John,  Thanks for the answer and sorry for the delay in not seeing it!  Better late than never.  And becuase you provided the path I was able to switch the Mail client to the one I am using!   

Should have done this a few months ago!!
