Alan, I know in the KDE control center there is a place where you can set all
your file associations, but what has always worked for me is to:
1. Open /home/youruser
2. Right click, pick create new HTML file (name it anything you want)
3. Right click on this file, pick Edit file type
4. Pick whatever browser you want to open it with, and move it to the top of
the list. Its now the default
Now, when you open a (html) URL in Kmail, it will use the default browser.
HTHs!
