So mailmerge is unfortunately broken, at least when using an LO
spreadsheet as a data source. I haven't tried to use something else
yet.

No, it works fine. At least in the way I use it ;-)

File > New > Database. Use the .ods as source.
Now you have a new Datasource.
(Also look at Tools > Options > Base .)

Type F4, open the datasource you created.
Drag fields (column headers) in your document (or use the window Ctrl-F2)

Now start Tools > Mail merge, and ... go immediately to step 8.

Close window F4, open and update your spreadsheet, F4 again ...

Cheers,
