"an error occurred while sending mail" using Outlook

I am using Adobe Acrobat (22.001.20085) and MS Outlook version (version 2203, build 15028.20160) on Windows 10.

 

When I try to send an email attachment from within adobe by using the envelope icon I get "an error occurred while sending mail".

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Adobe Acrobat and MS Outlook.
  • I have turned off  "Enable Enhanced Security". 
  • Outlook is set as my default email client.

I have three users in my office that are experiencing this problem.  The first started having the issue on Thursday followed by the second on Fiday and now the third is having the problem today, Monday. I am thinking an update has broken the feature, but I do not know if it is an Outlook issue or an Adobe issue.  Any ideas?

Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that.

 

Would you mind sharing the version of the Acrobat Reader DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 22.1.20085 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer.

 

Also, try to repair the installation (Win Only) from the help menu > repair installation and reboot the computer once.

 

Try removing the email account you have in Adobe Reader and then add it back and make it default. Navigate to Edit>Preferences>Email accounts>Remove the current email account. Then reboot the machine and add the email account again from Edit>Preferences>Email accounts.

 

Also, please go through the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/attach-to-email-not-working.html and see if that works for you.

 

Regards

Amal

I have had the exact same issue and it was also resolved by running an online repair of Microsoft Office. Have you had this issue recur? One of our users has now had this happen 2 days in a row. 

 

Thanks
