GFS data via SailDocs/UUPlus
The UUPlus mail app has proved to be a reliable and very efficient way to get GFS data via SailDocs over an Iridium connection. The only snag is the fact that after selecting an area in SailDocs, Expedition only seems to be able to open the standard Windows 10 Mail app instead of UUPlus.
The workaround is to copy the message from the Mail app into the UUplus app. Would it be possible to add a button where the data query is directly sent to UUPlus?
Cheers, wim

It should go to whatever is the default email client.

Re: GFS data via SailDocs/UUPlus
I know that on Wim's W10 PC we were somehow unable to set UUPlus as the default mail program. It simply doesn't appear in the list of programs you can set as default.
Does anyone else have this problem as well?

Re: GFS data via SailDocs/UUPlus
From the installation manual:
It is recommended to install UUPlus in the default directory, C:\UUPlus6\ (D:\UUPlus6\ or C:\Apps\UUPlus6\ would be fine as well. Do not install UUPlus in any directory that has space characters in the directory name, such as under "C:\Program Files\"
UUPlus seems to bypass a lot of Windows 10 meddling. It would be great to have the option to directly access this program from SailDocs
