Screen Capture #1: In WIndows 8 Pro (x64) I used AOOi 3.4.1 to create a small Writer document. I then used File | Send | Document as E-mail... Screen Capture #2: I saw the dialog (title "Email") saying there is no email program and an association in Default Programs needs to be made. Screen Capture #3: After closing that dialog, there was an OpenOffice.org 3.4.1 dialog saying unable to find a working e-mail configuration, etc. Screen Capture #4: I manually entered "mailto:[email protected]"; in the Windows 8 Run dialog box. Screen Capture #5: The default Mail application opened with a blank message and the To: filled in. This was already set up with my Hotmail account set as the default. I repeated #4 and #5 with only "mailto:"; in Run, and I also got the default Mail application, only nothing was already filled in. So there is more trouble-shooting to be done before this can be rejected as an user-solvable problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
