Bug #: 44761
Summary: eMail merge: Print document if target address is empty
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Hi,
I have to send out mailings to people half of which I want to contact via eMail
merge, the other half wants to be contacted via standard printed mailing (coz
they won't give me their email address or coz they don't want to worry checking
their inboxes regularly - or they have no email address...).
My receiver database contains both types of recipients (and I find it hard to
maintain two different lists, as I get my lists via export from some other
database tool).
a) It would be very nice, if there would be an option on the "eMail documents"
area in mail merge wizard, that if the receiver address is empty, the document
gets printed out on paper. (Theoretically possible also for all documents that
failed to send?!)
b) Alternatively, it would be way more flexible, if one could set up a set of
rules what to do with a mail merge document based on contents of fields. This
would require of course a complete overhaul of the "send/print/save" module of
mail merge wizard
I believe such options would help many many people make their email merge
workflows more easy - and adopting email merge only for those recipients who
want it.
Regards,
Thomas
