Bug Description

It should be possible to send directly a document open in evince via email.

I propose to add in the menu "File" an entry "Send via email" after "save as" and before "print".

It possibile reuse function from nautilus-sendto application.

It would be best if you file this request upstream, than you have much
more chance that it will be implemented.

Thanks for your bug. It doesn't make really sense to have a such option to applications, it's easy enough to use nautilus or your mailer for that. I'm marking the feature request as rejected, feel free to bug upstream about it if you disagree

Well, I disagree with #2.
I use Tomboy heavily, and I so often open a document via the Link in the tomboy note.
Then, without the folder window open, I am viewing the document.

Thus, it saves me a lot of time by sending it directly from the menu. Plus, this is a feature Adobe Reader offers.
