When I try to send an email from The Acrobat Reader app, it displays: an error occurred while sending mail.

Outlook 2016 is the default Mail app in my settings. It worked fin with Windows Live Mail before this, but Microsoft is discontinuing that makes us use Outlook.

I already have done that. The problem is that in Adobe Reader preferences, email accounts, it only gives me the default email application, and it is selected. Nowhere it shows Ms Outlook. Please advise.

Could you try the suggestion from this thread : Adobe Reader 'Attach to Email' is not working  on the last post. Let us know if that helps.
