That's a good question. There is some info documented here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Administration_Guide/Accessing_Email_Clients
Specifically the last section on that Wiki page is about setting up
the email client on Windows.
OOo uses the default client in Windows... whatever that is set to.
Have you followed those basic steps? (including the ones in the linked
Mozillazine article?)
If there's an error in the Wiki info, or it could be improved, let me
know.
There is no information on Macs on the Wiki. It is basically the same as
Linux except the path to the Preferences file.
This feature won't work with Thunderbird on a Mac due to a bug in
Thunderbird.

Do you know the OS X info well enough to add it to the Admin guide (or
send the info to me so I can add it). I don't have a Mac available to
test these things - I've added a bunch of OS X related info to the
installation section, but didn't think of adding it here :-P
It is the same as Linux except for the path (step 1). For Macs it would be:
1. In OpenOffice.org Writer, choose OpenOffice.org → Preferences →
Internet → E-mail
Apple Mail works.
Thunderbird doesn't, due to bug I mentioned previously.
I haven't used any other mail clients since I switched to a Mac so I
can't comment on them.
