Trying to do email merge in Word 2013. Nothing happens. Word help says something about needing a MAPI client, so how do I do that so that email merge in Word gets send by Tbird?

Thx.

I do have tbird set as default client, yet doesn't seem to work. Although I'd like to get it to work from Word, I can use the mailmerge addon for Tbird as a workaround. So, still looking for how to get word emailmerge to work. Also, FWIW, I have many email accounts in tbird.

I wouldn't bet that this will work at all due to TBs limited MAPI capabilities.
