--- Comment #6 from Rainer Bielefeld <[email protected]> ---
Back to list due to facts.

I did some research and found  the reason for the problem.

If you use "normal" Sender data in the resulting letter this contents will be
contributed by fields "Document - Sender", what show Data from menu 'Tools ->
Options -> User Data'

If you select "New Sender" in the wizard, these fields should be replaced for
the resulting document by fields type "Variables - User filed - City, Company,
..."

The bug is that only fields for Address will change to User Field, but Field
"Document - Sender - Forename" and "Document - Sender - Surname" will not be
replaced by "Variable - User Field - Forename", "Variable - User Field -
Surname"

I have no clue concerning these fields, it seems that the problem is that
"Variable - User Field - Forename", "Variable - User Field - Surname"  do not
exist for LibO?
The template seems to be off-elegant_l.ott

I already see the problem in AOOo 3.4.0 OOo 3.1.1, OOo 2.0!
So this is inherited from OOo, and a so long pending bug is not critical

How to fix
-----------
a) someone has to find out what field names the Wizard wants to write with "New
Sender Forename" and "New Sender Surname"
b) these fields have to be created for LibO, "Bug 59462 - CONFIGURATION: 
   Additional User Field Variables for Forename and Surname required"
c) in the relevant templates the Document data fields have to be replaced by 
   New  "Variable - User Field - Forename", "Variable - User Field - 
   Surname" in affected templates off-elegant_l.ott, off-modern_l.ott
   off-office_l.ott, 
d) someone should find out what Fax templates might be affected.

At least modification should be an EasyHack
