     I just made the change, and it works.
     Thanks for doing what some of the rest of us should have done: 
look to see if someone had already filed an issue.
    The solution is to change this file:
/opt/openoffice.org2/program/sendoc. To do so using vi:
1) open a terminal (Konsole in KDE).
2) Become root (su <Enter> and then type in your root password)
3) vi /opt/openoffice.org/program/senddoc <Enter>
4) <i> (hit the "i" key which allows you to edit the file)
5) Use the Down Arrow key to move down to the line:
     mozilla | netscape | thunderbird)
(This line is man lines down from the top, and Page Down might be a 
better key to use until you get close. Then use the Up or Down Arrow 
to place the cursor in this line.)
6) Add seamonkey to the line just after netscape and before 
thunderbird. It should look like this:
      mozilla | netscape | seamonkey | thunderbird).
(The vertical bar is generated by using Shift+\ keys. Also make sure 
that there are spaces between these vertical bars and the words.)
7) <Esc> (Use the escape key to exit the edit function.)
8) :wq! <Enter> (This saves this file as modified. The "!" is required 
because senddoc is a read only file.)
