I would like to contribute to the rewriting of mailmerge.py in order to make it functional again with new features. In new features we can see: - integration of Mozilla IspDB to make configuration easy. - support for different encryption systems (TLS, SSL, None...) - support for different authentication (OAUTH2, CRAM-MD5, PLAIN, LOGIN ..) Rewriting mailmerge.py requires modifying the IDL files involved. And I don't have a global vision of the uno API to be able to make these changes without help... Do you feel ready to do something? Thank you
@Ilmari, Do you think the reporter should send an email to the dev mailing list exposing the idea first ?
(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #1) > @Ilmari, Do you think the reporter should send an email to the dev mailing > list exposing the idea first ? Yes. It would also be a good idea to split the effort into sub-tasks, different Bugzilla report for each.
prrvchr: it seems you'd like to contribute to LO, great! However, don't multiply tasks, you already submitted tdf#132195 Focus on one task and start from the beginning: retrieve LO code then try to build it. (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GetInvolved)
(In reply to Julien Nabet from comment #3) > However, don't multiply tasks, you already submitted tdf#132195 Do not think that i multiply the tasks, it is just that i would like to carry out my project, and to finish it, it is necessary that I deal with these two things.
Hi all, I did half the way: Now we have a new Wizard accessible by Tools -> Options -> Internet -> smtpServerOOo with the smtpServerOOo extension (https://prrvchr.github.io/smtpServerOOo/) which is able to return the configuration of an SMTP server from your email address (thanks to Mozilla IspDB technology) I am in the process of registering with Google so that the OAuth2OOo extension is approved to use the scope necessary for the SMTP connection. Google seems reluctant, it would like me to use their API with a more restricted scope. It is out of the question that I use the Google API, because I want to be multi-provider and therefore use the Python smtplib library. Maybe it will end with the help of the CNIL, if I do not succeed. I still have to write a mail spooler, because I would like the mail to be sent in the background in order to be able to do mass sending (mail merge) and I am looking for some help and good idea for this famous spooler... Voila

<digression> In order to speed up the registration process with Google, so that the OAuth2OOo / smtpServerOOo extension is approved to use the necessary scope (https://mail.google.com/) for the SMTP connection, it would be a good idea, that the LibreOffice Team help me with this, by sending an email to Google. Because if I have to involve the CNIL, I enter into a very long procedure (the CNIL takes 4 months to open a request, and I think twice about it to process it) I want to point out that: - All my extensions do not collect any data and were produced so that the end user can use this data present in GAFA in a Free Software. - OAuth2OOo / smtpServerOOo is one of the types of applications that can access Restricted Scopes for Gmail (see the end at section: Restricted Scopes of Google API Services User Data Policy available at: https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy If you are ready to help me, I will give you the Google email address to contact for this request (perhaps with a private message). Thank you </digression>
I don't know at all if TDF can do something. There are already pbs about dev workforce (Base in general but not only, accessibility part too, MacOs pb with 10.15, ...) and no reaction from them. It seems it will be a David (you) vs Goliath (Google and/or CNIL) episode. I can't help here => uncc myself. Good luck!
