I tested sending with claws-email now, previously I used mutt, and all is 
working, composer window is invoked and file is attached. 
I understood this bug was about claws-email but if not it needs a precision.

"xdg-email is a command line tool for sending mail using the user's preferred 
e-mail composer" so why would it be used in Tools/Options/Internet/Email I 
don't know. 
My understanding is that it's working implicitly, if you don't set Email than 
xdg-email is used to invoke some (from Default/Preferred Applications). 
In my case, when I deleted claws-email path from Email and not from the system, 
it used mutt. 
But I got no screen prompts for the setting of Tools-Options-Internet-Email? 
Please paste screenshot here. 

Mail from mutt was composed and sent but without attachment. 
I then changed system mail to claws-email and xdg-email invoked claws-email but 
without composer window.
So for me, bug is that xdg-email doesn't attach file or compose mail, seen when 
when having Email empty ie. relying on xdg-email. Mine is version 1.1.2 from 
Ubuntu 18.04. 
But it should be that Ubuntu bug. And there "xdg-utils 1.1.3-4.1ubuntu1.22.04.1 
seems to have fixed this". 

(1) seems Ubuntu bug. (2) I wrote my view on xdg-utils (3) I asked you
to clarify, to have all here, but that would be another issue anyway.

Title:
  [upstream] "Send -> Document as e-mail" in Writer / Calc does not work

Status in LibreOffice:
  Incomplete
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:  Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia
  Release:      18.3
  LO: Version: 6.1.3.2
  Build-ID: 1:6.1.3~rc2-0ubuntu0.16.04.1

  In writer I have an open document. If I then want to send it:

  "File - send - document as e-mail"

  **Nothing happens**

  Same with send e-mail as open-document and word document. Only send
  with pdf opens at least the pdf dialogue. But then nothing happens.

  Path to thunderbird: /usr/bin/thunderbird
  Thunderbird opens if I use this path so the path seems correct. No error 
message received.

  Expect: Mail is opened and document attached. (which worked before)

  Update: Just checked in Ubuntu 18.04 and LO 6.06.2
  There it works as expected. Will check my other system again. Maybe it just 
does not work on my other system.
