Hi, I am having some trouble using the mail merge function of OpenOffice 2.0 to send emails.
I did some searching on the web and in the OO mailing list archive but did not find anything related to the problem I am seeing. What I did is to setup the Outgoing email server under Tools -> Options... -> OpenOffice.org Writer -> Mail Merge E-mail After hitting the "Test Settings..." button right away a window pops up, showing two tasks that failed: - Establish network connection - failed - Find outgoing mail server - failed As fast as this failure shows up, it looks to me that there is never a request going out over the network. Actually, looking at the LAN switch when hitting the button, shows no activity on the network. I have the same behavior on OpenOffice 2.0.0.1 under Suse 10.0 i586 and 2.0.4.7 under openSuse 10.2 x86_64. Is there some other setup that I have to do in order to use this? I found an explanation about the need to setup mailmerge.py in this document: http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/word_processing/Email_mailmerge.pdf But had some problems with finding the "EMailSupported" entry in my Writer.xcu. I would appreciate if anybody could give me some advice on how to solve this. Thanks for your help.
