Hello,
Excuse my poor english, i am french.
I want to use java mail to merge e-mail with OpenOffice.
I have dowloaded Javamail and expanded it and also jaf.
So I have mail.jar and activation.jar in a directory
What do i have to do now or where do i have to put them (in which directory) ?
Thank for an answer.

Hi Thierry,
I have installed both just a couple of days ago. You need to add the
location of those .jar files to the CLASSPATH variable, just to make
Java know where they are. Have a look at the README files that comes
with JavaMail to see instructions.
Tell me if you have success, I hadn't!
After installing Java mail the "e-mail message" radiobutton was still
deactivated in the mail-merge wizard.
After reading the issue
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=51638
I tried to hack my installation by editing
~/.openoffice.org2/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Writer.xcu
and change EMailSupported to TRUE instead of the default's false, as
follows...
<prop oor:name="EMailSupported" oor:type="xs:boolean">
<value>true</value>
</prop>
Now the e-mail message button is active, but when trying to put the
wizard to work I have found that the "test connection" always return
"failure".Among the comments in issue 51638 (and related) there is a
reference to a "special version of JavaMail" to work with StarOffice
only, but not OOo.
My hope is now in the full integration of the Python solution proposed
in issue 51638. Please, go and vote for it, the more votes, higher
likelihood of being actually done.
Enrique
