            Bug ID: 107894
           Summary: MAILMERGE: Integrate mail merge credential handling
                    with OS services
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Currently if someone wants to use mail merge from LO, she has to enter e-mail
credentials in the Options - LibreOffice Writer - Mail Merge E-mail settings
panel.

This is problematic in enterprise environments with many users, few
administrators and a password policy that makes passwords expire after some
months.

A better solution would be to - optionally - integrate the acquition of such
data (Name, E-mail, Outgoing mail server user name and password) with the OS
level user credential handling.

On Linux, I think this should be possible using gnome-online-accounts, for
example.
On Windows, I'm told there are excellent SSO APIs for this as well.
