<pre>I ran into this while testing a bug and found this:
<a href="https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/88245/e-mailing-connection-ok-server-ok-no-mail-sent/?answer=88352#post-id-88352">https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/88245/e-mailing-connection-ok-server-ok-no-mail-sent/?answer=88352#post-id-88352</a>
"You need to set the outgoing server parameters in the menu Tools → Options →
LibreOffice Writer → Mailing Email
If the parameters are set during the Mailing procedure in Writer, the parameter
tests Connection & Server are OK but the mailing fails with the message "please
run connect() first"!"
So this means the settings entered after trying to email and getting this
dialog:
"In order to be able to send mail merge documents by e-mail, LibreOfficeDev
requires information about the e-mail account to be used.
Do you want to enter e-mail account information now?"
Here is the whole error:
