Hi, Tom. I've thought over a reply for your question for quite sometime, finally decided to just add some thoughts. Except for a thread on printing labels (which appears to be a printer driver problem in this case), I've not posted here for a very long time. Nor do I use LO on a regular

Hi :) Outlook is not OpenSouce so it can't be taken under TDF's wing and given a home here. There isn't really much choice in terms of which email client and looking around into comparisons of different ones. The ethos of TDF and LibreOffice is largely to ensure it "plays well with others". As

One of the things I miss about Lotus SmartSuite is its' TeamMail function. It also included Team Review, Team Consolidate and Team Security. It might be old school, but it worked. If Thunderbird could function within LibreOffice in a similar way, it would be a great addition. Support for

One of the things that stops me from using LibreWriter 100% is that making APA references into a school report is an awkward task compared to using Microsoft Word. If this referencing could be made more user friendly somehow then it would become a viable alternative for post-secondary students who
