window of mail merge email step 8

Thank you Miklós Vajna for your improvements to the mail merge wizard in the upcoming LO 5.1
http://vmiklos.hu/blog/mail-merge-embedding.html

Suggestion for step "8. Save, print or send" of the Mail Merge.

When "Send merged document as E-Mail" is selected please enable the "Subject" field of "E-mail settings" to also, if required, use the data source.

Thank you

Hi,

Can you re-evaluate your request against master? Mail merge in master has only 5 steps, the other pages got removed.

Thanks.

This is a valid enhancement request but it is not blocked by bug 98981.
You can either add the e-Mail account setting via tools/options/LO Writer/Mail Merge e-Mail or can just press the 'yes' button of the mentioned QueryBox.

Now after clicking Sed E-Mail Messages on the toolbar, the dialog has the same "Subject" field that Óvári suggests to allow being linked to the data source.

Still a valid request in the new situation.
