Hello Sarel, OpenOffice.org doesn't have an email client (mail handler). You can use an Open Source email client like Thunderbird, SeaMonkey also has a mail component, etc. >From within OOo you can use Send, that will prepare an email in your default email client with the file you're working on as an attachment (either in OOo's ISO format odt, ods etc. / or in MS format / or as PDF) AFAIK Internet Explorer is no email client but a browser (but maybe I'm far behind concerning MickySoft products...)
