In the process of messing with Thunderbird I wiped out all my mail and had to start this thread anew. The only way I was able to get Thunderbird to treat Chrome as the default browser was to yum remove Firefox. Still the initial problem remains. I may be able to configure chrome to work right but I'm still stumbling through the configuration menus. If I run across a url/link in an e-mail I want to be able to click on it and have it come up in the browser but not replace my e-mail window! I will look at the link when I'm ready and it should be waiting in the browser in it's own window. Simple enough, no? I like to be in control of what my computer does not have it force me to do things its way.
