--- Comment #10 from Michael Weghorn <m.wegh...@posteo.de> --- (In reply to Stuart Simon from comment #8) > [...] To personalize > the e-mail AND the attached certificate, both of which have their personal > name, would be a great feature to have. Feel free to open another enhancement request for this. I haven't used that feature myself, but the WollMux extension ( https://github.com/LibreOffice/WollMux ) provides the feature to have both a personalized document and a personalized email message for each recipient. WollMux might also be a helpful example for an extension that that does LO mail merge and provides additional features, e.g. when planning to create an extension that provides the feature to support sending the emails via specific email clients. > I'm wondering if there can be an extension to support popular e-mail client > integrations for mail merge (maybe separate ones for Outlook and > Thunderbird).

So IIUC, the Word/Adobe integrations do not really interact with Outlook via any API, but by placing the relevant files into the Outlook app data directory that are processed by Outlook the next time it is opened. I agree that opening a lot of compose windows doesn't sound like a great idea. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
