Thanks for the reply. I have LibreOffice 7.2.7.2 version as
loaded by default for my Fedora 35 and also have
LibreOffice 7.3.4.2 downloaded from libreoffice.

With both I have tried a simple saved file with the word
test in it. File is saved. Have Tools / Options / Internet /
Email set to /usr/bin/WSENDTO (Thou I did also try using
the direct path to program as well.).
Strange - but in all the years I've been using LO Writer and email, I've never 
thought or had reason to look at that setting. But now that you've made me 
curious, I've had a look to see what I've got in Tools / Options / Internet / 
Email and it informs me that my email program is :  sensible-lomua.

I've no idea what that is. I've used Thunderbird in conjunction with Linux and 
LO for many years and it just worked.

Sorry.
Thanks again for the quick response. Don't know if it is
trying something else. In browser I can type
mailto:mi...@guam.net  and it pulls up email client with
no problem. Just seeing nothing with libreoffice, but the
macro works fine.

I thought I'd try to find out a bit more about 'sensible-lomua' which is what 
exists by default in my Tools / Options / Internet / Email.  I guessed that the 
lomua was Libreoffice mail user agent and apparently that has been inherited 
from OpenOffice where it was 'sensible-oomua'.

There was a bug opened in 2011 by someone who had a similar problem:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/841184

Their solution was simply to replace 'sensible-lomua' with 'thunderbird'  
(without the quotes and without any path).
