Could this be similar to upstream bug 916689? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=916689 Bug 916689 - Click on a link or "Open link in browser" has no function
On my up-to-date wheezy system, with Thunderbird 24.1.0 installed locally, clicking a link in email launches a new, blank, browser window. The hyperlink is not reached automatically. Prior to Thunderbird version 24, clicking on email links correctly opened URLs in a new tab in the existing browser window. This worked out-of-the box. This is an XFCE desktop, and other apps open links properly (ex, akregator). Thanks! Ralph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
