Is it possible to send photos directly from the Camera Roll using a mail app other than Apple's Mail?

Hello All,

I recently downloaded Orchestra's Mailbox app and I love it. It has replaced Apple's Mail app in my iPhone's 'dock'. But when I go to email photos directly from my Camera Roll, it brings up Mail and wants me to set up my Gmail account again. Is there any way around this? Is it possible to set up Orchestra's Mailbox app as the default mail application?

Thanks!

iPhone 4, iOS 6.0.1

Nope, you cannot reassign default apps to replace any of the built-in iOS apps or functions. iOS is sandboxed in such a way that those sort of default assignments simply cannot be altered by the user.
