Dennis, I'm not sure if you've found a solution to this issue but what you can do is add the following lines to the firefox and thunderbird pref.js files. Close firefox and thunderbird before doing so and replace <xxxx> by the appropriate name. ~/.mozilla/firefox/<xxxx>.default/prefs.js: user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto", "thunderbird"); ~/.thunderbird/<xxxx>.default/prefs.js: user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "firefox"); user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "firefox"); user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "firefox"); Olivier > I use Thunderbird (e-mail) and Firefox (browser) under KDE (SuSE 10). > When I click on a URL in an e-mail message, nothing happens (I want > Firefox to rise up and connect me with the URL).
