[Hein <841184@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The same problem applies to me. After upgrading to Oneiric Libroffice
still wants to send emails via Evolution and is not starting the
standard email client: Thunderbird. I'm now looking how to manually
adjust this. But in Libreoffice it doesn't look very straightforward:
any one that has done this with success? I hate to tinker with my system
a lot more: I already had to make some adjustments.

Apart from that, after upgrading my (evolution) contacts have been
migrated to Thunderbird, but emails and the link to google calendar has
not been migrated to Thunderbird, nor has any calendar related data.

I would have expected that migration to another mail client have been
tested a lot better.

Title:
  LibreOffice ignores default email client

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  LibreOffice has many email features in File > Send. However
  LibreOffice ignores that I have a default email client (Thunderbird).
  When I try to send a document as an email I get the following error:

  LibreOffice 3.4
  LibreOffice was unable to find a working e-mail configuration. Please save this document locally instead and attach it from within your email client.

  LibreOffice lacks integration into the Ubuntu desktop. Ideally using
  this feature would check the default email application (System >
  Settings > System > Info > Default Applications) and use the preferred
  email client to send an email with the attachment.
