This guide describes how you create a service menu to allow you to right click on one or more files in Dolphin and create a new mail with the files as attachments.
The first thing you need to do is use the command line tool kde4-config to determine where service menu definitions should be located. Type the following on a command line:
kde4-config --path services
On my SuSE 11.2 system I get the following output:
/home/gugrim/.kde4/share/kde4/services/:/usr/share/kde4/services/
The first path shows where your personal ServiceMenus directory should be located. Check if there already is such a directory there, if not create it.
Create a new file called sendto.desktop, in the ServiceMenus directory, with the following content:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
Actions=SendToMailRcp
Encoding=UTF-8
MimeType=application/octet-stream
X-KDE-ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel
X-KDE-Submenu=Send To
[Desktop Action SendToMailRcp]
Name=Mail Recipient...
Exec=kmail --attach %F
Icon=kmail
