Hello folks,
I'm trying to use OpenOffice for mail merging documents to email my
students.
I'm using the v3.0 beta on OS X Leopard.
Within the Options settings, under "Internet," I've selected my E-mail
program as /Applications/Mail.app
under "OOo-dev Writer" I selected "Mail Merge E-mail" and entered in
the settings for my internet provider (Comcast for me):
SMTP Server name: smtp.comcast.net,
Port: 587
Under Server Authentication I checked the "outgoing mail server
requires authentication" and selected "same authentication as incoming
mail server" with settings:
Incoming server name: mail.comcast.net
Port: 110
Type: POP 3
and entered in my user name and password.
These are the same settings I use for other mail clients (Entourage,
Mac Mail, Thunderbird).
When I select "Test Settings," I get "Failed" on both "Establish
network connection" and "Find outgoing mail server"
Any idea of what I might be doing wrong here?
Thanks much for any insights you can share with me.
