------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jun 26 05:08:10 +0000 2008 ------- I have the version from Ubuntu, probably hardy-updates. not only is the "test settings" option broken, but the email sending of mail merge also fails. It just stops. No progress in sendin mails. So this bug is more serious than it seems, because the entire fuctionality of email merge is broken. I am encouraged that you can't reproduce this. I thought that it must be an SMTP server problem.However, in Evolution I can configure my SMTP server as port 25 with no security, and it happily sends mail. Openoffice mail merge fails. No error messages, it just hangs. I assume you realise that this is different to sending mail in OpenOffice writer from the File menu, because the mail-merge feature attempts to connect directly with an SMTP server. From google I see that many people are reporting the same problem as me. So I am puzzled that you can't reproduce it. Could you give some more details of your settings? Which port, what type of server authentication did you set up? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
