Does anyone know exactly how to get Thunderbird to open URL links in
Konqueror rather than FireFox?


Well, googling brought this answer:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/thunderbird/linuxurls.html

Not sure if this is still they way to do it, looks a bit overcomplicated (need for extra script)

Thanks, this is the correct command for the "user.js" file:

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/path/to/konqueror");

I find that I need a script for Konqueror for a different reason.  It
appears that Thunderbird can't use a command line with blanks in it even
if you use "s.  So, I added this to: "user.js":

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/usr/local/bin/konqueror-URL");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/usr/local/bin/konqueror-URL");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/usr/local/bin/konqueror-URL");

Then made a script: /usr/local/bin/konqueror-URL to do what I want. This works but I get a new window for each URL I open so now I wonder if there is some way to get Konqueror to add a tab rather than opening a new window.
