I would be surprised if it worked for anyone, because I haven't 
implemented a Share extension. I hadn't even read the documentation for 
this to be honest (I have now).

I don't know why the MailMate icon is in this menu at all, but it 
appears to be a side-effect of having MailMate chosen as the default 
email client.

Apple Mail appears to work (although the icon was not updated) if I 
changed default application -- it simply opens a composer window with 
the attachment. I cannot find a Share extension within the Mail 
application bundle, so I'm not sure how that works. It's probably 
somehow related to the problem of the misleading use of the MailMate 
icon.

I can probably create a share extension with the same functionality, but 
it's not a high priority right now. Note that the “Services ▸ New 
Email with Attachment” menu item is provided by MailMate and it should 
still work.

(Interestingly, I'm pretty sure that if a MailMate Share extension was 
available then the MailMate icon would appear twice in the Share 
menu...)
