Running in XMonad.

'Tools - Options - Internet - Email - Email program' set to 'mutt'.

With LibreOffice running from command line, attempting to send an email by choosing 'File - Send - Document as Email' gives the error:
"/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/../basis-link/program/senddoc: line 200: x-terminal-emulator: command not found"

A workaround is to run:
# ln -s /usr/bin/urxvtc /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator
This task depends upon

I'm using /usr/bin/claws-mail that works fine here. Try a full path name. Any special env variables set on your system?

Full path doesn't make a difference, and no special environment variables. I presume it's because libreoffice knows mutt is a terminal client, and so is looking for a debian-type /etc/alternatives link?

no idea how this works. ask upstream. it's stored here in ~/.config/.libreoffice/3/user/registrymodifications.xcu - maybe make a backup and remove it.
