Since upgraded to LO 6.1.0 onwards started facing the problem of documents send by email stopped working
Also post here mentions about a macro which sends email with PDF attachment using a email client as THUNDERBIRD, the basic issue is setting [ Libreoffice --> TOOLS --> OPTIONS --> INTERNET --> E-MAIL --> EMAIL PROGRAM --> browse & set to --> /usr/bin/thunderbird ] is not firing up THUNDERBIRD BUT Geary works with same LO 6.1.2 [ Libreoffice --> TOOLS --> OPTIONS --> INTERNET --> E-MAIL --> EMAIL PROGRAM --> browse & set to --> /usr/bin/geary ] Using Linux Mint 19 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Find my detailed posting about mentioned 'MACRO' at https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=89073&p=457389#p426971 >>> After upgrading to Linux Mint 19 + Thunderbird 60 + Libreoffice 6.1.2 ; 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 ] ......... UPDATE ........... Tested 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 6.1.2 has the bug, strangely specific to THUNDERBIRD only ... as GEARY works in both version of libreoffice. <<<<<< -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1748895 Title: LO unable to find a working email configuration Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Installed from PPA: ppa:libreoffice/ppa $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:core-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch:printing-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:printing-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch:security-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:security-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial $ apt-cache policy libreoffice libreoffice: Installed: 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 Candidate: 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 Version table: *** 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 500 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/universe amd64 Packages 1:5.1.2-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages WHAT YOU EXPECT TO HAPPEN: Should spawn an new Evolution eMAIL with attached ODF document WHAT HAPPENED INSTEAD: Error Dialogue: LibreOffice is unable to find a working email configuration.
