Is there a way to get LibreOffice to recognize Seamonkey as a working

Do you have Windows set to use Seamonkey as your default email client?
For most Windows applications, a request for "mail" should use whatever
is defined as the Windows default. I don't know of any reason that Libre
would use anything other than the default.

I don't know either but it doesn't recognize SeaMonkey even though it
is set as default and other programs like Adobe Reader do recognize it.

If you have more than one mail client that you use, and something else
is the default, I don't know if there's a way of convincing Libre to use
Seamonkey. However, that would be something to pose to Libre's user
community rather than the Seamonkey support group.

I've posed it in both places. It seems a Libre problem that has come
up more than once with different email programs but the only solution
seems to be to set the defaults, which I did. I thought someone here
might have encountered the problem and solved it as I've pretty sure
there are more SeaMonkey users that use LibreOffice than LibreOffice
users that use SeaMonkey.

If you use *only* Seamonkey for mail, then a way of forcing it as the
default would be to uninstall any other mail clients, and where
Seamonkey is the only one installed.

That actually doesn't work either the error message is that
LibreOffice can't find any working email configuration.

Some ideas for a workaround:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/841184
It's written:
The quick workaround to open in libreoffice Tools -> Options -> Internet
-> E-Mail and to inpute there 'thunderbird' (without quotes)

Perhaps you can put 'seamonkey' instead of 'thunderbird'

I've never done this before so, just out of interest, whilst my SeaMonkey 2.46 was running on Win 7, I started LibreOffice (5.3.0.3 (x64)), selected a Doc then selected File->Send and clicked on "E-mail Document" and a new e-mail opened in SM with the Doc attached and the e-mail subject the same as the Doc title!

So .... WFM!!

Don't know if it matters that I already had SM running!
