That's not the issue. Apache OpenOffice does not discriminate on that basis.
What is the issue is that Apache OpenOffice uses the on-desktop protocol for requesting the opening of an e-mail with a given attachment. This will usually be whatever is recognized as the default e-mail application on the desktop. Google does not provide any kind of desktop presence by which this can be handled. However, it is possible to access Google Mail by standard desktop e-mail applications, instead of using a browser. *That* software can then be reached by Apache OpenOffice so long as it is capable of being registered as the default e-mail application. The Microsoft Outlook desktop application will do this -- connect to Google Mail and integrate with Apache OpenOffice. Depending on operating system, the Windows Live Mail application will also connect to Google Mail and also be triggered by Apache OpenOffice. The same should apply for Outlook Express if someone still uses an operating system that has that desktop application. There are some differences in how this works with Windows 8. There is some other thread or perhaps bugzilla issue where that has been discussed. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Urmas [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 05:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Still unable to email documents with version 4 upgrade I was hoping this upgrade would overcome this frustrating and very annoying problem. It does not!! I use Google for everything, and for any office platform not to recognize Google email is stone age stuff ! Why should OO give a special treatment to a proprietary web service from 3rd party company? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
