Bill,
The "Mail Recipient" entry in SendTo is not a shortcut, but rather a 0KB "MAPIMAIL"
file, and does not have a Target line or a shortcut tab on the properties sheet.

OOPS, I looked at Mail Recipient Using Microsoft Outlook
The target line is:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\sendfile.exe"

Thanks for the heads up.
