6.3.0.4 includes most of the changes I suggested, but still fails to
operate properly - it switches the focus to the email client, but fails
to create a new email.
I thnk the problem may be at senddoc line 293,
MAILTO="${MAILTO:-}${MAILTO:+&}attach="$(echo "file://$2" | "${URI_ENCODE}")
My email client (Claws-mail) fails to handle the "file://" syntax, as do
some other email clients.
My suggestion (lines 269-276 of my proposed revision) was to omit the file://
(at least for xdg-email), so that the command then is
MAILTO="${MAILTO:-}${MAILTO:+&}attach="$(echo "$2" | "${URI_ENCODE}")
That then works; though I found it advisable to omit the ampersand in the mail
command (can't immediately remember why, sorry!), so that that command became
simply
${MAILER} "${MAILTO}"

Title:
"Send -> Document as e-mail" in Writer / Calc does not work
Status in LibreOffice:
Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Description: Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia
Release: 18.3
LO: Version: 6.1.3.2
Build-ID: 1:6.1.3~rc2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
In writer I have an open document. If I then want to send it:
"File - send - document as e-mail"
**Nothing happens**
Same with send e-mail as open-document and word document. Only send
with pdf opens at least the pdf dialogue. But then nothing happens.
Path to thunderbird: /usr/bin/thunderbird
Thunderbird opens if I use this path so the path seems correct. No error
message received.
Expect: Mail is opened and document attached. (which worked before)
Update: Just checked in Ubuntu 18.04 and LO 6.06.2
There it works as expected. Will check my other system again. Maybe it just
does not work on my other system.
