        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: OpenOffice fails sending email with Outlook 64 "Either
                    there is no default mail client or the current mail
                    client cannot fullfill the messaging request. Please

We are using OpenOffice Writer Documents and using "Send->EMail as PDF"
function.
With any 32bit mail applications like Thunderbird or Tobit we have no problems,
but with Outlook 64 (64 Bit Version) we can't send any mails.

We always get "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail
client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office
Outlook and set 
it as the default mail client".

But Outlook 64 is already default and the only client installed.

Microsoft describes this problem here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dd941355.aspx

Looks like, OpenOffice is NOT using MAPISendMail, so this error occurs. 

Using Outlook 32 solves the problem... but I think this is a compatibility
issue that should be fixed.

P.S.: I'm a software developer. Maybe I can fix this if someone tell me where
the mail send code is.
