Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 94346
add claws-mail to senddoc script
Last modified: 2021-04-30 16:18:05 UTC
The shell script ($INSTALL_ROOT/program/senddoc) fails after mail client upgrade. In the options menu, internet, e-mail there is a facility to enter the e-mail client program path. However the shell script is not updated. In this case the program name changed to claws-mail but the script refers to previous name sylpheed.
Confirmed this bug on Xubuntu (7.04/8.04/8.10) with Claws-Mail.
works for me using OOo 3.0.0 on Kubuntu 7.10 default setting for me is kmail - OOo will send via KMail if I change the setting to thunderbird thunderbird will be used. please retest wih a morerecent version of OOo and make sure you are using a build that has been provided by the OOo-Project. If you find this problemin a distributor's version please file a bug report to your linux distributor.

cd is this yours?
claws mail and thunderbird can be started with document attachments when I copy the script from LO 7.1 to the AOO program directory. The script is published under Apache license.

Can someone please test with AOO 4.1.10-RC2? https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.10-RC2/binaries/
I tested with Linux Mint 18.03. I installed Claws Mail and used AOO's Tools > Options > Internet > Email menu to point the email process to /usr/bin/claws-mail. I could then send a message with the current document attached but AOO waits for the Claws program to be closed before it can be used. With Thunderbird, I merely write "thunderbird" (no quotes) in the box in the Tools > Options > Internet > Email dialog and I can send email and AOO is not stuck waiting for Thunderbird. I can toggle back and forth between the programs and amend the AOO doc. If I write "claws" in the same location, clicking the Document As Email icon has no effect. There is no error message. If I write an invalid program name in the Email box, I do get an error message. I'm not at all sure I have checked these things correctly. I'll be happy to take requests for other tests.
