Sending a screenshot to e-mail with one button

There is a task - to send screenshots to the mail. Moreover, sending should be carried out from the system mail application, since it should be clear who sent the message, i.e. the scenario is as follows:
1) The user presses a button or a combination (Shift + PrntScr for example)
2) The mail client window opens (in my case Thunderbird) with the To field filled in and the screenshot attached
3) The user writes the text of the letter and the subject (as an option the subject can be pre-specified in the 2nd step automatically) and press send.

The point is that the user needs to make a minimum of gestures to send a screenshot. No need to open the editor, paste an image from the clipboard there, expand (usually the mail is running) the mail program, press the button to compose a new letter, attach a file, specify the addressee, etc.

At the moment, the best I have found is Greenshot - it allows you to do everything described above, except for one thing, you cannot specify the default recipient address . Perhaps someone knows a program that would allow you to specify a default recipient or another way to put the scenario described above into practice.

I don’t know what’s going on with you, but… Outlook and The Bat allow me to insert a screenshot through a regular paste… If it’s so impatient, then throw in a small handler that will do everything that you wrote. I did not understand why Habr is here. And in order for the data to be filled in advance, use the templates of the mail client.

Yes, at least on PowerShell'e you can write an application in a maximum of ten lines.
scored in Google c# screenshot - the first two links - an application for 10 lines. I can put together something that works for you if you want.
but without hanging on the global hotkey, maximum in the tray, I can’t master the general hotkey yet.
