I'm a new user of OOo on my Mac. (os X, if that changes things) Everything is pretty hunky dorry, except when I try to send a document as email. When I go to that tab and click "send as email" nothing happens. I think my screen blinks momentarily, but that might be the power of suggestion. There's no hint as to what is going wrong. Do I need to do something to let open office know how to get to my email? Did I maybe miss an update or download improperly?

Thanks for any help you'all can give me.

Very interesting. I'd never thought to try this, and it doesn't work for me, either [OOo 2.4.0, OS X 10.4.11]. I will have to try with 2.4.1 on the other machine. I can verify that i have given OpenOffice the path to Mail. Basically, File -> Send -> [any of the email options] never creates the dialog box as promised. FWIW, File - > Send -> [Master Document or PDF] do export as desired.

Dana, for now you can do what i've always done, which is to save you document as normal, then fire up your mail program and attach the file to a message. If you have trouble remembering where the file is, use Spotlight or just save to your Desktop. Oh, and the configuration option to let OpenOffice know where your email client is under Tools -> Options, then select the Internet tab.
