I tested sending with claws-email now, previously I used mutt, and all is working, composer window is invoked and file is attached. I understood this bug was about claws-email but if not it needs a precision.
"xdg-email is a command line tool for sending mail using the user's preferred e-mail composer" so why would it be used in Tools/Options/Internet/Email I don't know. My understanding is that it's working implicitly, if you don't set Email than xdg-email is used to invoke some (from Default/Preferred Applications). In my case, when I deleted claws-email path from Email and not from the system, it used mutt. But I got no screen prompts for the setting of Tools-Options-Internet-Email? Please paste screenshot here. Mail from mutt was composed and sent but without attachment. I then changed system mail to claws-email and xdg-email invoked claws-email but without composer window. So for me, bug is that xdg-email doesn't attach file or compose mail, seen when when having Email empty ie. relying on xdg-email. Mine is version 1.1.2 from Ubuntu 18.04. But it should be that Ubuntu bug. And there "xdg-utils 1.1.3-4.1ubuntu1.22.04.1 seems to have fixed this". (1) seems Ubuntu bug. (2) I wrote my view on xdg-utils (3) I asked you to clarify, to have all here, but that would be another issue anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1748895 Title: LO unable to find a working email configuration Status in LibreOffice: Incomplete Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Installed from PPA: ppa:libreoffice/ppa $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:core-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch:printing-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:printing-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch:security-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-amd64:security-9.20160110ubuntu0.2-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial $ apt-cache policy libreoffice libreoffice: Installed: 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 Candidate: 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 Version table: *** 1:6.0.1~rc1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1~lo1 500 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:5.1.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/universe amd64 Packages 1:5.1.2-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages WHAT YOU EXPECT TO HAPPEN: Should spawn an new Evolution eMAIL with attached ODF document WHAT HAPPENED INSTEAD: Error Dialogue: LibreOffice is unable to find a working email configuration.
