I have now tested a stack with an error built using with 2.6.1, 2.7.0,
2.8.0 & 2.8.1 and none of them have any trouble with the error
reporting email. They all show the exact error.

So either this is Windows only (I'm using Mac and my app only runs on
Mac & Windows) or it depends on the error. I'll have to see what the
people reporting the false errors are using.

I don't get this either. The standalone still runs fine after
displaying the error dialog, whether you email the report or not.
Again, maybe this is platform-specific. What are you using Scott?
