      I have created a .Net Maui application that generates a SQLite database file that I want to send to a coordinator by clicking a button. The coordinator's email address is entered and saved in another SQlite database along with other associated data to support sending an email to that person. I have incorporated the snipet that is supplied with the documentation provided by Microsoft on the IEmail interface on the web. This software compiles and the app runs but it generates an error message that wtates "Theres is no email program associated with this app to request this action". The solutions that are posted in the web are not acceptable for a user of my app to apply to their computer in order for it to function properly and send the email. So my question is why or when will Microsoft incorporate an email program within the IDE so that that the IEmail interface can function properly.

        To expand, Visual Studio IDE should build the email program into the applicatioin so that if allows the IEmail interface to send an email to the intended party.
