Re: [libreoffice-users] Question on send to email option in linux..

Could there be a problem with your installation of LO?

I'm using LO Writer 6.4.7.2 on UbuntuStudio 20.04 and the Send to email works fine. Clicking the File 
> 'Send to email' opens a write window in my Thunderbird mail client with the document already 
attached.
