Problem exporting to email in LR4 using Microsoft Outlook.

I use Outlook 2010 for email on my Windows 7 64-bit computer. When I export images to email using Lightroom 4.0, the email is sent and it does reach the recipient, but THE EMAIL NEVER APPEARS IN OUTLOOK'S "SENT ITEMS" FOLDER.

I depend on Outlook to keep track of correspondence with clients. Because of this problem, I have no record of the email containing the exported images.

How doe I fix this?

I just tried this in Lightroom 5. It works now. I exported an image from Lightroom 5 using the built-in export preset called "For Email" under Lightroom Presets. After I sent the email, I checked my Sent Mail folder and found it listed there. I did not have to manually tell Outlook to save it. So, it appears this issue is fixed in LR5.

Hi Alan
Great to hear. I just don't feel like paying 75$ for the upgrade just so that can send and save my emails :-)
