Hello,
In PSE2021, the share panel only proposes Twitter and Flickr. Shouldn'it propose more options, including email ?
How can I get the other options ?
Many thanks,
Patrick

Sharing is normally managed by assets management tools like the organizer. It's a strange idea to expect the editor part of the combo editor/organizer to do that job.
By the way, if you want to be safe on the Internet, don't ask different applications to 'speak together' if you have a better solution. That is the best way to be attacked by all sorts of malwares. In the case of mail, all mailing solutions are able to send photo files on your computer as attachements or embedded in your text. They are more flexible, powerful and safe than communication from PSE. With PSE, simply save or export your files to your desktop or a temporary folder. No problem with your usual contact book.
I no longer count the number of my correspondents who have been stolen their contact book.

OK, will do. My idea about using PSE to share photos is because there is a "share" menu and I read in the documentation that "email" is a proposed option. Also that this option would convert PSD into JPG, which is an interesting feature.
But I understand from you guys that it is not a good idea.
Thanks to all for your answers.

In my PSE2021, I connected the Organizer:Share:email to my gmail account. It was a bit of work to get the dual authentication required for security purposes. But that setup works great for what I use it for...just a few folks I send to; 6 or 7 at the moment. True, my gmail contact list with 100+ people doesn't convert for me - at least I haven't spent the 100 hours necessary to discover a workaround. I never send anything to 99% of them anyway. I've never had a security issue with using email via PSE in this manner. Doesn't mean I never will, and if I do, pffft, I get to chat with my 7 closest email buddies about the event. But this does save a few steps of saving my images to some location on my computer and then attaching them to my email app.

For me, the bigger downside of using the Organizer to email the photos is the overly prominent link to an Adobe website that promotes PSE. Your recipient may mistaken open it in lieu of or in addition to the photo and consider it a spam document.
