Henri,

What you're asking for is an e-mail client to be incorporated into OOo. As I
recall, this has been asked for many times before, but the developers don't
seem to want to use their time developing something that is already
available in already mature open source applications like Thunderbird and
Seamonkey. Thus, whether you like it or not, to send an e-mail message from
OOo, you will have to use one of the open source e-mail clients, configured
to use Gmail as its default account. It's very easy to do, and has no
downside except having to download and install the desired client.

John
