Changing the 'Save' default document type doesn't work

G

Gwyn Cole

If you change through 'Word Options', the default document format from .docx
to .doc. Then if you use the 'Send -> Email...' option from the Office
bubble, the attached document is .docx and not .doc.

I would expect the default save document type option to apply to saving &
attaching a document when sending an email.

If what happens now is by design, then there appears no way to change the
attached document file type when sending an email (from within Word).
