If you backed up up your ~/.thunderbird file before you upgraded (yes, I was shocked to see that I actually did back mine up), copy the mimeTypes.rdf from your old install to the new install (its in the .thunderbird directory, 2 levels down) and your browser of choice will launch on a thunderbird link-click, again.

Excuse me for using this thread but I feel I have a problem related to
this, but with Thunderbird not opening URLs.

I followed all instructions I can find, but have not been successful.

Using the config editor I added the following, and have checked that it
is in the file prefs.js:

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

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.warn-external.ftp", true);
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http", true);
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https", true);


This does not work for me and has been so for a while. It started after
an upgrade.

If anyone has a solution to this problem I would like to read about it.

Thank you :-)




I just goggled a little more and found a mention of the file mimeTypes.rdf

The changes I made was not transferred to this file.

Editing the entries with firefox to the correct path did it.

Sorry for the noise :-)
I didn't know about that one- we use thunderbrowse here. Check addons :)
