So it seems to be a special Windows XP problem, because for Windows 7 it works
for me as for Armin. We need someone to test on Windows XP.

>From version 4.0 to 4.1 some Mozilla parts has been removed, because they are
unsave. That might cause the difference between the both AOO versions.

Please test, whether the mail client is properly registered. For example start
WordPad and write mailto:users@openoffice.apache.org. This should give a
clickable text. Click on it. Does Thunderbird open? Or look into the registry
in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail whether Thunderbird is listed with
the correct DLLPath. In Thunderbird itself make sure, that it sets itself as
default email client.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail shows Thunderbird DLLPath as
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\mozMapi32_inuse.dll

Thunderbird is set to check that it is set as default at start-up.

I have a writer document that has mailto: links in it and v4.1.0 calls
thunderbird with a blank message to the address set in the link with no
problem.

jolatt;

In my experience the Windows settings for default e-mail client have always had
an effect on the file->Send functions. I have never in the over 10 years I have
been using OpenOffice ever set the mail-merge settings in writer and have never
had a problem using the File->Send functions until now. I just set those in
v4.1.0 and they had no effect what so ever on the problem. It still tells me
that it cannot find a functioning e-mail program. I have restored v4.0.1 and it
sends flawlessly with no properties set in Tools->Options->OpenOffice
Writer->Mail Merge.

The windows settings has no effect to the email function in AOO, IMO.
The email configuration has to be done in Tools-Options-OpenOffice Writer-Mail

Tried an interesting experiment. Installed Seamonkey and set it as default
e-mail client and send as works fine with v4.1.1. I then set Thunderbird as the
default e-mail client and send as still called Seamonkey to send the e-mail. I
then completely uninstalled Seamonkey and again AOO says it cannot find a valid
e-mail configuration. I then re-installed Seamonkey this time importing my
entire Thunderbird profile and AOO v4.1.1 send as calls the Seamonkey e-mail
client and sends the document as an attachment.

What I find most interesting is that AOO appears to ignore Thunderbird entirely
if it sees Seamonkey is installed even though Thunderbird is registered as the
default e-mail client it stills calls Seamonkey.

That is interesting Armin, it could be that it is only affecting Windowsa XP at
this time. I just Tried again with a draw document and a spread sheet and
recieved the same error. If I uninstall the 4.1.0 RC4 and re-install 4.0.1 all
works as it should.
