Description: I've just received this dialogue box when trying to send a PDF from Writer. I use claws-mail and have set my email program in Tools to /usr/bin/claws-mail. I am using Linux Mint 6.0.6.2 This has never happened before Steps to Reproduce: 1. Save document in ODT 2. Try to send as PDF 3. Actual Results: Dialogue box as above "LibreOffice was unable to find a working e-mail configuration." I followed the steps below and it appeared that the link to the email client was working but pointed to the default client (Thunderbird) I changed this to claws-mail and then when clicking 'send as pdf' LO opened claws-mail but did not open a compose window nor (therefore) create a temporary pdf to send. Expected Results: Document should have been sent to email client as PDF Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: [Information automatically included from LibreOffice] Locale: en-GB Module: TextDocument [Information guessed from browser] OS: Linux (All) OS is 64bit: yes Version: 6.0.6.2 Build ID: 1:6.0.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); Calc: group

Immediate solution to this bug is to use geary as your email client. The reason is also funny ... (scroll down to know this) But that is not solving the actual problem ... which is WHY THUNDERBIRD STOPPED working with Libreoffice since 6.1 ? Why on earth try to update something with is already working and instead of making it better end up in breaking everything. I have confirmed this bug with every release of LO since 6.1.0 and there seems no improvement since then. ---------------------------------- See the post in https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=89073&p=457389#p457389 ----------------------------------- After upgrading to Linux Mint 19 + Thunderbird 60 + Libreoffice 6.1 ; Emailing through the macro suddenly started behaving strangely. The email body text generated through macro started appearing in Recipient email boxes in thunderbird and is not usable. Setting up Thunderbird as email client [ Libreoffice --> TOOLS --> OPTIONS --> INTERNET --> E-MAIL --> EMAIL PROGRAM --> browse & set to --> /usr/bin/thunderbird ] in libreoffice is also not working; as it is no more firing up thunderbird. I do not know what is going wrong , Also I dont know whether bug is in Libreoffice Or Thunderbird Or somewhere else. But here is the finely working workaround --- Solution is to use geary email client, Set GEARY as default email client in linux mint. Also set geary in libreoffice [ Libreoffice --> TOOLS --> OPTIONS --> INTERNET --> E-MAIL --> EMAIL PROGRAM --> browse & set to --> /usr/bin/geary ] ------------------------------ Tried with Libreoffice 6.0.7.3 in Linux Mint 19 & with Thunderbird 60.2.1 (64-bit) --- And it worked charmingly as before !!! So definitely Libreoffice 6.1 has the bug, strangely specific to THUNDERBIRD only ... as GEARY works in both version of libreoffice. Thank you !!! ----------------------------- I have received following reply in some other forum https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1748895/comments/36 -------> GEARY works simply because it is not named in program senddoc, which then uses xdg-email as a default, to call the system email client, whatever it is. But hey, as an entry in Tools/.../Internet, it works! So, possibly, would "/usr/bin/wxyz" ... ------------------------------ -- Ankur
Created attachment 151831 [details] Calc file with macro to sent email + Readme + Screenshots Unzip Monthly_Invoice.zip Go through readme & accordingly use dummyinvoiceformat.ods file Problem with Libreoffice (Linux mint) - 1) When Tools--> Options--> Internet--> E-mail--> is set as /usr/bin/thunderbird Now try to send email through libreoffice ---> NOTHING happens 2) When Tools--> Options--> Internet--> E-mail--> is set as [BLANK] AND Thunderbird is set as Preferred Application in LINUX MINT Now try to send email through libreoffice ---> Some weird thing will happen , Email Body will go inside email address boxes ( ZIP has screenshot - SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.png ) 3) When Tools--> Options--> Internet--> E-mail--> is set as [BLANK] AND Geary is set as Preferred Application in LINUX MINT Now try to send email through libreoffice ---> Works PERFECTLY ( ZIP has screenshot - SHOULD HAPPEN.png ) ---- I can bet Thunderbird was also working Perfect untill 6.0 under the same setting. I tried the same with same version of Thunderbird but old version of Libreoffice (6.0.5) then it worked perfectly , but with all LO 6.1 + versions it is not working anymore (but geary is working somehow) And Windows+Thunderbird do not work even in 6.0.5 , there we have to use windows Live mail as client. There is something terribly wrong in email functionality since LO 6.1. I have tested till LO 6.2.4.2 ... and all have same problem.

Dear richard@darton-moore.co.uk, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.
