How to have Office recognize EMAIL provider

Post by theBlackman »

I do not use MS mail. My primary Email is through JUNO.COM. How do I setup Office to use that EM address when I use the FILE>SEND>EMAIL.

All attempts result in a "No link to EMAIL..."

Any advice appreciated.

Hi and welcome to the community!

The email function in OpenOffice needs a configured email client (like Thunderbird, MS Outlook, etc.) to work. It will not work with an online email service.

Maybe also the discussion in this thread helps.

Thanks. I'll check out that conversation. I do use Exp 6X for a browser and none of my other apps fail to find and use it. I have ignored Outlook, and Exp has served me well with few if any problems.

I have it set in the INET TOOLS as the primary Email address/link but I'll check again.
